I am sure that it will come as a shock to election officials, most of whom probably have no recent military service, but some of our deployed teams do not have internet access, nor do they get the opportunity to send or receive mail more than once or twice per month due to their isolation. Food and ammo is airdropped to them.

Should they be denied the opportunity to vote for the elected officials of the nation they serve?
