They USED to be able to have family members see their sailors during that time...my son did back in the day...his brother went there and took him out for the day. From what I hear now, they can sign up to go with a church group for meals and fun..the list is given to the sailors to pick from I think about 3 weeks prior. They stopped the families as it got to a point too many were VERY late getting back to base! Some even went AWOL, so ruined it for eveyone else.
