LOL! That's awesome! I was stuck at PSAB and didn't get off base. But that was ok with me. I ran the base newspaper and we weren't allowed to print certain words, such as Christ, Catholic, Protestant, etc. For the chapel schedule, we had to say "C Meeting" and "P Meeting" for services.

You had "real" wine. Do you know how much one bottle of Johnny walker Red cost in Saudi on the Black market? $150-200.00 per bottle. Don't even ask about the other Johnny Walkers......
The homemade stuff...wine and beer....OMG, that shit was bad...but you drank it anyway. And, the Sidiki.....ugggggggg!!!!
Is that the Holiday Hajj or a Kwanzaa Kube?
