Well which base is right north of Fort Drum. seems to me we did a road
march with vehicles and the border inspectors on the Canadian side
remarked that the last time this has happened was the war of 1812 or
something like that.

Anyway, a great time was had by all, to be sure!


The base north of Fort Drum is Petawawa.


The closest base to Fort Drum is CFB Kingston, a much shorter hike than
Petawawa. You have to hang a left once you cross the border, though.

Further west is CFB Trenton, which is where the new C-17s live. It's
nice to have the heavy lift capability. We used to rent Antonovs to haul
stuff around. That's just plain embarrassing.


Right. I was thinking of a base with a manoeuvre training area.
