If they are closed, it doesn't suprise me. Since they put restrictions on military personel going to Nevada brothels, I'm sure it has hurt many of them.
Sidewinder,
I have not heard of this. What type of restrictions do they have now on military personnel going to Nevada brothels?

The last time I talked to a "military guy" he said they weren't allowed to go see IC's or go to brothels because it was going against the morality rules that they have in place. EVEN getting a blow job is against the rules. (and yes this includes from their wives!) When I asked if people really got in trouble about it he said that MOST of the time it's just another "don't ask don't tell" kind of thing...but if the guys really did want to be jerks about it, if they caught them and really DID want to get them in trouble, they could. I think it's stupid, but some of the rules are for safety I suppose. 
Eh, well.
When I was in the Army back in the '60s we were told we are U.S. Government Issue property... thus the name, G.I.s. Being Government Issue property, we were expected to take care of that property and not expose it to potential harm which includes venereal diseases. It was not necessarily a morality thing as much as protecting a government asset. Even doing things like motorcycle racing, sky diving or even a game of touch football where injuries might occur could bring the rath of the Army down on you for not taking care of their property.
But, as Gummi Bear touched on, there was a don't ask, don't tell mind set about visiting Ladies of the Evening. As long as you didn't show up at a medical dyspensary with a case of the clap, no one was gonna say anything about your off-duty shenanigans.
When I was overseas, stationed on Okinawa, it was understood that most G.I.s posted there would be visiting the girls who worked in the bars & bath-houses on the Island. I certainly had my favorites over there. I was there for 18 months and I partied as often as I could.
