What does a 'real' base even mean anymore? I wouldn't know who my CPO is if he walked into my room right now. I can do anything/everything I need to do via electronic means for the most part. The only real downside I can see is that the company could eliminate a bunch of deadheading, but since errybody is whining continually about center seats, that would be a good thing, no? As long as we have PS commuting (sort of) all should be good.
