From Liisa, SMSgt Temple’s wife: Rex managed to log on the computer at the MWR Center for just a few minutes to say that the base connectivity is really bad today and he won’t be able to post anything today. It took 35 minutes for MSN Messenger to load and he managed to send home about 10 sentences in 5 minutes via Instant Messaging. But he hopes to be back to regular posting tomorrow – if the web access is better.
