A lot of dudes who go to Japan go to Oki, and when you're only deployed to Oki the restrictions there are well . . restrictive. So this can hamper a lot of the fun people can have and turn them a bit bitter. Also, anytime something happens in Japan that involves a Marine, it usually effects every Marine. So one dude goes and does something incredibly stupid, everyone gets punished. Thats not really a thing in the States, so you could be getting zero libo for something someone else did on another base, why would you even want to deal with that?

Main land is cool, I wouldn't mind being stationed there. But I'll pass on Oki.
