It wasn't immediately apparent (mostly because 800 divs aren't supposed to talk to anyone else), but I was in Ship 4 while I was broken and y'all were coddled by bootcamp standards. Physically, I'm sure you guys were challenged more than the rest of us, but for the mundane things like meals and watch you had a lot more leeway and less bullshit.
For instance, during the time I was there all of Ship's Staff was RCU because the 3 800 divs in the ship were "too busy". Because putting the people on crutches on quarterdeck watch all night made more sense . . .
