Default Slightly OT, but..

Reading Eddie's post reminded me of something that happened when I was stationed on Okinawa. I'd met & befriended an Air Farce type, same rank as me, E-3. He showed me his room at the AF's barracks. Huge room, full size bed, no roommate, drinking fountain in the room that had hot water for coffee.

My barracks? Built shortly after WWII, was open squadbay converted to 2 man rooms with thin paneling, community shower/head, no a/c, standard military bunkbeds, steel lockers.

I have to admit to being slightly jealous.
