When it is really bad like that on a DD or FF no one sleeps very much or eats all that ( PB sandwiches ) much. Or showers all that much. Just go on watch and hang on ‘till the next watch and hope you don’t get sick.

The worse part is the shuddering that happens when the sonar dome pops out then crashes back down. Shuddering will make even the hardiest feel awful.
