I've been to Diego Garcia. It is boring as hell; about all there is to say. We got in trouble for trying to organize an expedition to secretly catch and eat some of the coconut crabs (which is verboten).

Also played D&D in the service. Most active tabletop gaming group I've ever been in too.

Didn't D&D in DG tho.

There's no way organizing a secret group to capture and eat some sacred monsters doesn't count as D&D.

> secretly catch and eat some of the coconut crabs (which is verboten).

Was this out of environmental concerns / the crabs going extinct or was there something more to it?
