A life spent on the base

This young woman grew up at the base. She has been to the mainland U.S., but found the vast choices -- places to shop, places to eat, things to do -- disconcerting.

Some skills are exclusive to the base

This Cuban workman rewinds an obsolete motor. He's one of the few who are familiar with this kind. As the Cubans working on the base grow old and leave their jobs, they are usually not replaced, by order of the Cuban government.
