Deployed in Afghanistan during COVID-19 #REL101

I am currently deployed in Afghanistan and have no idea when I will return home to the states due to COVID-19 travel bans. I have been here for about 7 months now and was supposed to leave soon but we have been informed it is a strong possibility we will be extended. Through these tough times it is even harder for troops that have been away from their families for so long only to be told they cuts wait longer. We have limited access to amenities such as gyms and MWR(game rooms) due to social distancing. I hope that resolutions for the virus will soon be found and we can return home safe and sound #REL101
