| Thule Air Base is the US northernmost base (76 32' North latitude, 68

and approximately 550 miles east of the North Magnetic Pole, on the Northwest side of the island of Greenland. Greenland is the largest island in the world.
There is no "local town." The closest Inuit (native Eskimo) village, Qaanaaq, is 65 miles away. There is no "off-base" except for the bay, the ice cap, and miles and miles of rock. 17,000 men at the Air base in Tule and we STILL waived our minimum 16 hours on the ground rule. |  |
