We lived at 3564B Westover Rd - it is now 100 Westover Rd… this was my favorite place to live; I love Ft. Sheridan and it will always hold a very special place in my heart. Thank you for such an awesome video…

I was stationed there from 1990 to 1993. It was so weird seeing some of those buildings converted. I remember picking up garbage behind the post office.

We lived there when my husband was stationed at Glenview NAS in the early 1990's
