As legend goes, every Joint Task Force Guantanamo Trooper adapts to one of four specific archetypes by the end of their time at U.S. Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Are you a gym rat or do you prefer peace and solitude at the end of a work day to reflect on your thoughts? Or quite possibly do you prefer a smooth stiff drink or a decadent fatty meal? Regardless of your naughty decisions supposedly every JTF Trooper will fall into one of the four categories before their demobilization back home: a hunk, chunk, drunk or monk.
