Hi all,
I'm hoping to get a lot of responses on this.
Even though we're drawing down in Iraq, lots of servicemembers are still in Afghanistan, and deployments continue. I understand that to avoid long lines, heavy restrictions on use, and poor functionality, groups of people will go in together to rent satellite equipment costing lots of money.
Can anyone with experience in this expound a little for me? I would like to drum up support to see if we can get subsidization or donations for what we here stateside take for granted. There's no good reason a soldier should have to wait in line for an hour to video chat with his kids over a poor connection for only a few minutes.
Thanks!
