my closest story is from Antarctica, early 90s. back then the Navy still ran about 1/2 the functions, so there were a good amount of them around doing their Navy stuff. and we got their media programming on the local radio signal. back then it was Armed Forces Radio and Television Service - AFRTS - A Farts. soon thereafter changed to AFN - Armed Forces Network. kind of liked A Farts.
fresh food?
the last plane left in February, the next plane you saw was June for mid-winter air drop, and then next plane to land was August. if it wasn't on base, you didn't eat it.
