The best story that we heard about 38 Facility before reaching the place was about the guy who was mugged while walking back to his room. He goes to the 38 Facility duty admin office to find the Army Duty Staff sharing out the takings from their little "Mugging" patrol. The last tour I did there in 2010 was notable for CBFFI kicking the RIC OC off the Island for his naked dancing on a table in the Sgt Mess with the majority of his SNCO's.
