It will certainly give the term, hot bunking, a new meaning.

Gates & Mullen are trying to turn the Navy into a giant whorehouse. They are extreme PC whores, and both certifiably crazy.

They already did this on Down Periscope. And the lady on that sub, she ended up getting promoted to Director of NCIS.

This is stupid and does does not spell ‘national security’. Good grief! What is wrong with these people. Never mind; we all know what is wrong.

Once again the issue of "fairness" is raised as a reason to change military policy. No one who supports this of course explains how this change will make the Navy better at what it does.
I would think of all the worst things that happened to the past couple of generations of Americans is the instilling of the idea that everything, no matter how inherently or unalterably unfair, must be made to be fair, no matter what the costs.
I'm also going to go out on a limb and guess that no US sub has the extra room for a maternity ward and day care center either.

Those are the people who control politics from both sides, folks. Let ‘em do their thing, but don’t help ‘em with it. And survive. Most of the rest of you are going to lose your jobs. Realize that first. Avoid unnecessary personal expenses. Become more self-sufficient. Start a hobby of making something useful (not little pretties, “crafts,” etc.). ...something like steel castings, parts, tools, food, clothing, etc.

I agree it’s not a good idea. Perhaps they’ll just have an all female crew.
