Κρήτη is the fifth-largest island in the Mediterranean Sea and it separates the Aegean Sea and the Libyan Sea. Heraklion is the capital city.

The last base I was stationed at when I was in the U.S. Air Force was Iraklion Air Station back in 1992-1993. This was the first time I ever lived overseas but believe me it's nothing like being an expat. I can't believe that it's been 22 years since I was last there. The base closed in 1994 but I plan to go see the old location next week.
