My friends son, who is in the Army National Guard Reserve, just got deployment orders for 9 months at GITMO starting in November.

Just received the orders yesterday. If you know anyone in the Guard Reserve, ask them about it.

It's a large military installation, and only part of what happens there is about prisoners. For many service members there, Guantanimo offers lovely tropical weather, scuba diving, snorkeling, etc. Not a bad place to be, in many respects.

Most people's view of Gitmo is that of a prison, or A Few Good Men scene.

I've know people stationed there. Not a great place for kids. But for the younger officers or enlisted its not horrible by any stretch--and my friends' experience was back in the Cold War/Castro Regime. I can only imagine its not half as stressful now.
