While we will not spend a great deal of time outdoors, there may be times of sun exposure riding a boat (open with shade cover) across the bay from the runway to the base and back again.You may wish to bring sunglasses, sunscreen and/or a cap. Use of cameras and photography is prohibited at Guantanamo.”
