To add to what slade said, it's one of the smallest and probably the most senior base in the system. The day trips are really nice if you move to base but I wouldn't set sail here with your sights only set on BLI. If you are content with moving to one of the more junior of the 16 bases it would be worth throwing in an app since getting BLI could possibly take years to hold and commuting to day trips just isn't practical.
