What Makes this Post Unique

We are located in Kingsland, Georgia and since Kingsbay Naval Submarine Base is here all of Camden County, the towns of Woodbine,Saint Marys and Kingsland are all great supporters of the military. We have a lot of retired Navy in the post but also Marines, Army, Cost Guard and Air Force from all three of those towns.
