With Bahrain in the news, and the American military presence there being a large part of the story, I find myself remembering the time I spent on the Manama naval base in that small country. It was back in 2003, and I was accompanying Blink-182 as they played for American servicemen. You can read the resulting article here. I still have vivid memories of women sitting by the hotel swimming pool, wearing full burqas.
