As a military brat, I've been all around the US, including Fairchild Air 
Force Base which is located about twelve miles (20 km) southwest of Spokane.

Tenth grade, Medical Lake High School, located off-base in the Medical 
Lake School at 200 East Barker St. about 4.4 miles from the base.

Nice place Call me when it's finished.

Note: The host unit at Fairchild is the 92nd Air Refueling Wing (92 ARW) 
assigned to the Air Mobility Command's Eighteenth Air Force. FYI
