    Ofcourse I recommend this place. The base was great! Even the drive up there as you approach the…read moredolphins and marine wildlife seem to greet you. It's picturesque and has all sorts of amenities on base. It's located beautifully and all the folks i encountered were helpful. Additionally, the base exchange was well stocked and the purchases I needed to make were nearly effortless thanks to the customer service I received.

We have driven by it a gazillion times. We get to look at some of the older planes parked out on the runway. And as the years go by, we can see the increase in buildings and base housing -- it's a lot (!) that is really quite wonderful. The base, itself, is located right by the beach. There's a nice area next to the ocean and a playground right outside the walled complex. What else they're doing inside the base, I have no idea. I've read some of their history. It is named after a Major General. It opened in 1940 originally and was only renamed the "space force" base in 2020. And they do manage launches of uncrewed rockets at Canaveral. This is one of two Florida bases with this name change. According to one newspaper report, it cost $50,000 of taxpayers' money to change all the signs. However, the name change and the "new" signs indicating this change always make us laugh at bit because of some of the science fiction movie/television show connections, memes, and political jokes that were prevalent when this new "force" was proposed.

Given the time constraints of an honored lunch break , there was no easier choice to make than visiting United States Postal Service office right there on base. I was helped by Tammy who was great. As it turns out the address that I had originally received didn't quite lineup instead of rushing me through or anything. She was kind enough to help explain the possible reason. Treating me like a guest and not trying to rush me out the door is what Earn's this place it's fifth star. Can you take personal care of the folks you are helping that makes the world of a difference. Tammy did a great job and thanks to her efforts. I was able to verify with the recipient of the package the address which they had gotten mixed up. The place was super clean on the inside, and the air conditioning was actually a welcome respite from the unforgiving Florida heat and humidity that awaited just outside the double doors Tip: They Close at 1215pm, so make sure you're tracking that beforehand and don't show up on your lunch break to find locked doors
