This wifi thing in the Navy is hilarious to me. On the sub, we didn't even really have any semblance of internet for upwards of 45 days between ports. Absolutely no contact with the real world off the boat with the exception of maybe 2 emails that have been stripped down and read by god and country prior to getting to the boat. Stars and Stripes would send us a weekly news update with a few scores from different games around the country.

Other than that, once the hatch was shut, you didn't talk to a soul that wasn't on board between port calls.

Surface guys had is so easy... Fake Navy and Fake News.

Most not all. I'd trade 6 extra hours off a day (VAdawg) for my shite Internet I'd wait in line for that only worked half the time anyway

There were stretches we'd have 12 off, far and few between for us though

We did hit ports twice as often though. I'll give you that
