[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 538123, member: 4191"] Don't know how much access you're given to the internet in your 'down' time, but I find it easy to spend 30-60 minutes a day researching hunting and shooting topics of interest on this Forum. There's a number of additional hunting Forums available if you live and love to hunt. As mentioned, any form of physical exercise is a good mental and emotional release for a young strong body. I've watched my father continue to migrate from hobby to hobby to hobby as old age limits his physical capabilities. Not saying you're old. But the parallel here is he continues to keep his mind and body active by migrating into new activities that he finds satisfying, yet still capable of participating in. He's 89 now. His primary hobby at this point is target shooting with a compound bow. He's set the current record score in the over 85 years old age group in the U.S. He still plays softball. Had to give up golf due to a sore aching shoulder. Your limitations are probably not physical, but rather due to the nature of your location and combat duty. Try to figure out something interesting and give it a try... Appreciate your sacrifice for our country. Hope you figure something out to keep your mind and body active, alert, and healthy. Best regards and wishes for safe travels and a safe return when your combat duty winds down. Paul [/QUOTE]
