One thing that stuck out was his description of amenities at a Forward Operating Base or FOB:
They were isolated cities unto themselves, often boasting coffee houses, fast food restaurants, massage parlors, and massive dining facilities
Now, I've been deployed a couple of times, and I've seen some pretty posh large bases in forward areas. Never did see a massage parlor though. Is that the new Morale, Welfare, and Recreation at work, or is it contracted through KBR?
Just have to wonder.
