In the Barracks

Boingo offers Wi-Fi and TV service to barracks residents on Marine Corps camps. Boingo’s Wi-Fi service is designed specifically for the on-the-go military lifestyle. Flexible plan options are available, so Marines and Sailors can choose from daily, weekly and monthly plans. Subscribers sign up in the barracks and enjoy service instantly.

Unlike a cable subscription, Boingo’s services are not limited to a single room, building, base or area; customers can use the service anywhere there is a Boingo signal on their base or on other bases.

The MCCS Okinawa Liberty App

Make life easier and download the MCCS Okinawa Liberty app—your one-stop shop for all sorts of information on things to do both on and off base, transportation schedules and numbers, events, emergency contacts and a helpful guide on liberty policies.

The Liberty app also provides flag and sea conditions, up-to-date TCCOR levels, a yen rate calculator, basic Japanese phrases and more.

This app was designed by a team of MACG-18 Marines and spouses to enhance prospects for a safe and enjoyable liberty experience on Okinawa and is available for both Apple and Android users. For more information or to download the app, visit mccsokinawa.com/liberty.
