“Join the navy and they will give you that bunk space for free...”
What Navy...not the US Navy. Those are three times taller than Navy racks and at least twice as wide. If you don’t smack your forehead if you sit up too fast it ain’t a Navy rack sir. You should see the racks they put Marines in we are cargo to the Navy. On a SSN you hot rack or sleep on top of the fish in the torpedo room. Yeah imagine having a 21” wide 3600lb torp inches above your whole body that if it leaks otto fuel on you it burns like acid. Good tomes, good times. 0321 for the win.
I was on an aircraft carrier some 40 years ago during a relative peace time period. For single people living on the ship, it can be a great way to save money for the next chapter of their lives..
