One of our Chief Petty Officers designed and put a direction pole for everyone's home. I contributed with my Google Earth program that can provide distances. So, here's our sign with mileage and a closeup of the Pensacola indicator. These are great circle distances. The shortest route to P'cola from here would be northwest over Norway, then due west over the tip of Greenland and finally south over Canada to the Florida panhandle. Going straight west would be about 10,000 miles. The great circle distance is less than 8000. Looooong way from home. Also 10.5 time zones.

Very neat. Seems that it has also been decorated for the holidays.
The Hesco barriers in the background give me the willies.
Our base has never been shelled, rocketed or shot at. Still, I think having the Hescos is a good idea. This is right outside our hut and the Hescos also house shelters in case we were ever shot at.
