Would a usa soldier have access to computer for chat in his offtime on large base in Iraq.. hes computer spec.?

Of course he will have internet access. The bases will have "SPAWARE" rooms where computers can be used. And most bases have a USO on top of that. Some units even chip in money and purchase a satalite dish to setup their own internet so troops have internet in their rooms.

Every Base, COB, or post I went to in Iraq had plenty of internet. But dont be freaked out if he cant talk for a few days. Comm goes into blackout conditions when someone is killed or for "other" reasons from time to time, to keep information from getting out prior to nptification of family.

There are internet cafes in most locations (not all but most). Some places even have where you can get Wi-Fi or have a connection in your room(as we where recently told in a deployment briefing)

It's really just going to depend on what the location has set up.

While my DH was in Iraq and Kuwait ... We talked just about everyday (even if it was only for 15 minutes) unless there was a black out and then obviously no one is talking to anyone because everything is shut off.

No they have access to computers there especially with his MOS. Most bases have internet cafes and of course companies or batteries have computers and alot of soldiers bring their laptop with them so there is time to get online.

I chatted with hubby almost every nite (morning his time) on line. Of course his job he had access to a computer 24/7.

But only if he is on missions outside the fence or someplace not really settled will he not have immediate access to a computer but sooner or later he will.

He sure could have access to computers. I don't know if the USO is in Iraq, but there are definitely other places where computer access is available.

My husband is in Iraq,on a small base,and since he brought his laptop,he purchased internet in his room.....sooo its very possible. he gets on 3-4 hours a day,and he leaves the base for work...so its possible.

And as everyone else says,they have internet "cafes" over there as well.

particular they do. do no longer think of they have them as they circulate working around on the Hummers or jointly as they're capturing at insurgents. they could be able the place they sleep and devour etc. the backside of operations, is what that's pronounced as. likely the style of computers is restricted and so each and every physique would be restricted to one or 2 emails an afternoon or the different day or something like that.

If he works on computers all day hes at a bigger base and they ALL have internet access.

Well, if he's in IT then I suppose that's what he will do. There are so many areas in the army, they aren't all foot soldiers.

Ask what the weather is like and then check on a web cam or something, so you can see if he knows what he is talking about and not making it up.

Yes they have internet cafes
