I've gone on some more trips. If it wasn't for living in the CLUs, the excess paperwork just to get off base and the requirement to always be in unifrom in the Galley, this deployment wouldn't be that terrible. There's lots of speculation that in the next decade if the base builds out this could become accompanied tours. Of course we would have to build family housing complexes like in Sicily, primarily because of water quality. The water coming out of our sewer treatment plant is cleaner than the tap water in town. The snorkeling at the White Sands beach was fantastic.
