Those of us that are or have been in the military know that the MWR, provides a lot of activities for morale. I used the gym as an out, as a stress reliver, like most people, but they gym sometimes was also my escape from others, and my job while out there. Sometime, to me it feels like we need to keep up our morale by socializing, or we start to lose it, or that's when lonliness sets in. Where i was located the army made the navy guys a grill dedicated to the navy that davey jones grille, well the army called it that, but weekly we would go to the PX and buy out the place for steaks and hamburgers and hot dogs. and we would grille out, most of the time it wasn't convienient but the fact we were doing it together, and enjoying a lil piece of home, it made things so much easier. Also what we had going for us was that we all for the most part got a long. What have you done while deployed to boost morale for yourself and your comrads, or shipmates, battle buddies. Whatever your service call each other.
