..and everything you bring on absorbs the fuel oil smell.
Luckily, I was assigned to a carrier: USS Carl Vinson. Those guys who are on subs chose to be there.

Nope. Everything on a sub absorbs the amine smell.
Amine was used in scrubbers to absorb CO2 from the atmosphere. Amine has a VERY distinct smell and it gets into everything. You could come back with an unopened pack of cigarettes, open it up on the pier, and taste the amine. You could never get that smell out of your clothes.
