Ditto what Chris said.
But I feel your pain. I was at sea every Christmas, Easter, birthday, Thanksgiving... you name it. I was stationed in the armwrestling capitol of Florida for three of those six years and never once got to armwrestle because I was always at sea.
People forget how hard military life is. It's not just tough during wartime. You really do put your life on hold for the most part because Uncle Sam has a job to do. Nothing like watching guys kiss their wife and little kids through a chain link fence because we're in home port for one day and you've got duty that day and can't leave the pier.
