in iraq we don't have comcast or time warner cable or anything like that. we have the armed forces network. it has channels like sports, news and movies that simply pirate the signal from real channels like espn, nbc, cnn, fox news, and whatever else might be of interest to us. and since most things we want to watch are on while we're asleep, the shows/games are rebroadcast a couple of times.
we have 2 tvs set up in our dfac and that's the only place to watch tv right now. but when we go back to the fob i can get AFN sent to my chu and watch it there. but at that point its kind of random. if i tune into the news channel it could be fox news, cnn, msnbc, or any of the nightly news shows.
also, there are commercials, but not to sell products like back home. instead, we have commercials reminding us to hydrate or on the importance of weapon safety.
just a little difference with this place i found interesting.
