My dad went twice the first time was scheduled the second time because he had some in country experienced he went on a broken arrow. Then he punished some men and sent them to serve out their 4 year hitch tour .
As an Air Force brat I would get call from my Dad saying, pack my go bag. One day he called saying to pack his bag he was going to Guam. Packed his his warm weather list. Guess where he ended up? Thule! Laughed my butt,but he was not happy.
My dad went up there stay 5 year up there 1960/1970 ya he came out 2 week he went crazy about Bill's ooo I was kid asking him was like up there and say it jus cold base son. Now I'm 59 year old cry about him he pass way 1993. But his true ghost walk the home ckeaking on me and mom His name was David hamm
Gee sorry I missed out on a Thule, USAF sent me to Hellenikon Air Base (Athens, Greece) where I was subject to view bikini clad women at the beach, Amstel beer, restaurants & night life. It was a tough assignment. 1978-80 7206 ABG. SPO/LE OBP.
That guy they interviewed about his schedule looked just like Jim Carey in Dumb and Dumber. He needs to do something about that haircut. It looks like the Air Force sends all their "special" people out to Thule and keeps them all together in one place.
Temperature in Degree F or C for an international audience, plz. I could look it up, but lazy/tired. Compare with Doc World's IceWorm project history. Realism would be some video of wintertime cold, not just summer... YMMV
@@LadyFourteen Missiles will travel so fast it doesn't matter to see when it lanched and nowadays missiles don't need to travel a straight line it could go in a z pattern, fly under an airplane or what pattern you want and can travel very close to the ground. And then we have all other weapons that will be more important like tiny cheap drones with ai.
@@Nubbe999 It’s my understanding that technology was already being worked on the sixties in usaf with reverse engineering including satellite and ground radar- with the likely exception of ai. They must be working on other technologies there today- I assume, for it to still be running or ongoing maintenance. I highly doubt it’s uses are obsolete
Thule Society (Nazi Satanist Occult society) is alive and well, thanks to places like Thule AFB and all Americans. *DO your own research, stop being SHeeppeople.
i was there in 92' found it so strange that a North American country, was governed by Europeans? and yes, you need to score high on your aptitude test to end up there 😎
Also... Anyone wondering why Trump was talking about buying Greenland? His father or grandfather was a known white supremacist and it is said the only thing he reads are some of Hitler's speeches he keeps on his nightstand! And the Greenland base is called "Thule" ?? Named after the Nazi society?
No. Origin is Greek and Roman for the northernmost reaches. The Thule-Gesellschaft (Thule Society) name is based on this same Greek and Roman mythology and predates Nazism.
VictorLepanto Have you ever watched the movie, “No Time For Sergeants”? I always thought it was kind of silly how they used the term “ICBM” in some of the jokes.
A remote assignment is part of the J.O.B of a career Airmen. My Military Service opened so many doors to me that now at 52 years old it's still paying off. To young men and women reading this, don't get discouraged, a remote is only 12 months. Put it this way 12 months here followed by 36-48 months at an Island assignment surrounded by crystal clear water, beaches and the kindest people you will ever meet. Yeah remotes suck but it's what you do with it and how you position yourself later in your career. Just my opinion from my Military service and that of my friends. The Air Force was one of the smartest moves I have ever made.
@@adamsauer6516 Hell yeah!. I'm fully retired now and a small business owner, My Wife and I may be moving back to Okinawa in two years. Itseven better now. SHit everywhere. LOL . They have Beach Campsites as part of MWR up at Okuma Rec Site up North.
They told us the was a woman under every rock. They didn't lie, but they were all frozen solid. Getting a TDY there in the 80's truly made you a cold warrior😁😁😁
No! Vladimir Putin has had it back many yrs, signs are surfacing more each month and he has China and Iran very involved in keeping us spending by stirring the chit in the mid-east to get us involved. Just a general squeeze on us all the time.
The Russians are flying their Bears every other week down our east coast to watch us scramble our Air Defense to shadow them from Newfoundland to Cuban airspace. Yes, they are reading the signatures in what we have under the domes at Thule.

Northern Greenland has a very harsh environment. I greatly respect those who serve there 👍❤ hugs from Denmark
That guy on the mic 🔥🔥🔥
I was in the Army, Nike Hercules Missile Detachment.
I spent 1963 there! I was 20, there were no women there then...long, lonesome year!!!

I got my balls frozen to a pole when I was stationed here
Toooly
I remember how cold it got in the winter...
I respect USA! Military bases on most parts of earth. God bless America🙌

And soon is the base useless
Why?

Sound turned up all the way & could barely understand what was said.
Turtle Power!!! lol
GreenLand is continentally connected to North America.
I remember airmen were sent there fore punishment in the 1960s.
My Dad was stationed there as an Air Force Supply Sergeant. Next duty station after that was Florida! Can't blame him!
Space command sounds like a plumb assignment. Bet they don’t have this in their recruiting videos
The British NEVER get pronunciation of foreign names correct. It's "TOO LEE" not "TOO LAY", you POMEY bastards!
Bullshit! Do they need watching by local radars, while they have lots of satellite radars in sky? Greenland is another Iraq.
Sign me up, take me there! I know more than most of the general public! I want in!

CFS Alert: *shhhhhh*
....And Donald Trump wanted to buy Greenland! Is he planing on going into the ice business??
Getting people locked up in prison business .
In the age of conscription this place must have been the very definition of "unfavorable transfer".
This is a dream location for many.
Wonderfully interesting report. Quick question. Do the personnel at this base get any extra pay, due to its location?. Just curious.
The "good old" usa has come a long way from custers last stand 150 years ago! to todays technology, hope they are friendly to the eskimos!!!
I guess it's sort of like being stationed in New Jersey but without the bad smell.
Exceptionally interesting!
@1:11 does anybody notice the power cables that are just hanging there? Guess all the vehicle up there have a plug in heater
Where was the name for the base, derived? The Thule Society, that some of the Nazis believed in and followed? Interesting
No. Origin is Greek and Roman for the northernmost reaches. The Thule-Gesellschaft (Thule Society) name is based on this same Greek and Roman mythology and predates Nazism.

Hey hey! Thule is awesome!
The narrator makes a mistake - Thule Air Base was built in 1943, not 1953.
I've always found the term ICBM funny. It makes me think of someone using an outhouse in January.
VictorLepanto Have you ever watched the movie, “No Time For Sergeants”? I always thought it was kind of silly how they used the term “ICBM” in some of the jokes.
I'm reminded of the old joke that there is a woman behind every tree at Thule, the only problem there are no trees.
Ok, now I get it
Bet theres lots of sex going on there

Who are they kidding its not about Russian icbm's its about the underground alien complex!!!
Thule is the place no military person wanted to assigned.
Yep. When I was in the Air Force back in the 60s, Thule was the threatened punishment for fekking up.
But the Cold War is over ! So why’s it there?
