#3 Other service members also stated that when a request for a federal write-in absentee ballot was made, they were told the base’s stockpile of such ballots was depleted and had not been replenished.""

In an internet world, there's no good reason why the unit voting officer/NCO shouldn't be able to push a button and print one out.
