In my search to see exactly what a section leader does (Supervise and assisting the recruits in respective sections; Monitoring personal cleanliness, military appearance, clothing care
and watch standing for recruits assigned to respective sections), I found an article giving a fairly detailed description of what happens during Navy basic training on a week by week basis. It included a small photo of the interior of one of the “ships”, with the bunks and the cubicles for personal effects:
It’s nice to be able to mentally visualize where Charles is staying (and where Alex was).

IT’S A CULT!! They sleep-deprive you, and brainwash you and make you do uncharacterisitc things like stay clean! They break your will and mold you to their use! NO ONE ESCAPES! Wait…there’s the funny cigarette…you can smoke one of those to shorten your stay!
