The support from Big Spring is nothing short of stunning.

I had heard about it before I went there so I was prepared for a little token
thing here and there, then I showed up at the welcome dinner, holy crap! Yeah,
they love us. The air conditioned hangar is nice (really nice) and I'm a big fan
of the free ice cream. That and all the other traditional support type stuff is
super cool and all, but man it's just nothing next to the people. I've never
seen such a welcoming community.

In 2010, my wife and I were having dinner at the local steakhouse
out along the freeway. I shook the hand of one of the gentlemen that I noticed
from the welcome dinner. When I went to pay my bill the waitress said that my
bill had been paid! Best darn steak I ever had.
