Now, the reality is about 30 seconds of analysis suggests the positives and negatives of each. Frankly, I suspect it will be Clark, and ever 55+ year old guy is going to bid it to relive his glory days until he finds that life in the RP is a young or retired guy's game, and we aren't a bunch of Navy Chiefs with family hookups.
An APAC base makes lots of sense. The question is one of location. Even ANC makes more sense that double DHs into theater. Of course, that's why ANC -11s is shrinking, but I don't second guess the mavens in Memphis.
