SDAI-

You made a submarine... out of a Delorian?

My brother in law just left his position as the Navy Air and Port Operations Officer in Diego Garcia, he got assigned there a month before 9/11.

The Air Force had drawn down their forces there circa 94/95 (incidentally, I was in the running to go on a TDY from Guam to help, but couldn't go.) Jeff said that when the Air Force started bringing supplies in for the airmen shortly after the surge of troop deployment following 9/11, before the mobility packages even showed up, the first thing off the C-5s and C-17s were gym gear, boxes of movies, etc...

Jeff laughed when the airmen who were assigned bunks on ships in port (because of the lack of Air Force sleeping quarters) approached him with paperwork asking to collect sea pay...
