Downtime? -shrug- watch movies, go to the mwr (when we finally got phones, months later) call our families, check emails, sleep, details, KP duty, patrol briefs. Really there was a lot of downtime, if you consider not wearing your entire kit downtime. it wasn't so bad. Lots of books to be read, movies and music being passed around. etc etc. I think we actually saw dark knight rises before it hit the states, and xmen origins. A lot of football games were played before they removed the moondust and put down gravel, and we had a decent sized gym, too.
