Those WW2 era subs are even worse.
..probably the biggest issue with subs is called "hot-racking". They usually don't have enough space to have a bunk for every individual on the sub, so you share a rack with someone else. When you're on duty, they are sleeping in it, and vice-versa.
Some dudes may like that, though.

Yeah, I remember hearing about that.
I guess when they were exhausted, they didn't care. I wouldn't.
But they were tight. The next sailor above's feet were right by your face.

I never once had to hot-rack. My first boat was an Ohio class... enough racks for everyone. My second boat was a Los Angeles class... but by the time I got there I had enough rank and sea time that I didn't have to share.
One time we had so many riders onboard that I was supposed to share my rack w/ a buddy of mine because he lost his to a rider. That poor bastard slept behind the EOG for 2 weeks because he said he didn't want to bother me.
