Cooper's Castle

Lajes Field, Azores

This page is about our assignment for the last 2 years at Lajes Field, Azores.

Lajes was a great tour on a small island in the middle of the Atlantic.  It can get small really fast.

 It is a base where we learned the people can make or break the assignment.  After 2 years we are ready to go but it 

has been great. We will miss a lot of great friends we have met on the island.
