re: Navy guys: how do you fill your down time?

I got out in 09 so I'm not sure what has changed, but no you can't skype home, the few computers there are suck and you can't use your own laptop to connect, and no wifi. Calling home was a luxury, only a couple phones, spotty service, if any, and expensive.

We played cards daily, usually a pretty big game of hold em, worked out daily, watched movies and most of all played Halo on Xbox.
