I finally got a response from my JAG friend. The key answer is "unit- specific" which means commander's discretion. However, according to him, the general rule is that personal use is allowed during duty hours as long as it is not "excessive", and off duty hours, most units allow unlimited personal access within the rules of their standing orders (i.e. no porn or criminal sites, etc.).
However, this all comes down to commander's discretion, and they are free to modify the rules under their command as they see fit.
Thanks for making that inquiry. The answer makes a lot more sense than Nathan's hard-line approach.
