I hope you did something sensible like set the barracks on fire.

That barracks was pretty good, with one exception: They had a huge row of toilets next to those scalding, steam-heated showers. When someone flushed a toilet ( and people did it just to mess with people in the shower) the cold water would disappear for a split second, the pressure would drop, and the temperature would turn SCALDING hot. I burned the crown of my head one time.

For years after, no matter where I was, if the water pressure dropped even a smudgen, I would leap out of the shower. It took me a long time to break that habit!

Now, the barracks at Millington, Tennessee was another thing altogether. I should have known when I opened the dresser, someone had , with a pencil, kept track of scores of roaches killed. THAT place, when you turned on the light, you would LITERALLY see the roaches scatter. THAT place SHOULD have been burned down!
