They only train together. Hygiene and sleeping quarters are separate.. how they found time for extracurricular activity is astonishing.

You have a lot of free time at boot. At least when I went through 5 years ago after the first few weeks you aren't busy all day long. And I know boot is now even easier. I think they could have condensed it down to 4 to 5 weeks.

During Sept 2011, there were Male only divisions and mixed gender divisions. As stated, the mixed divisions would only train together.

I'm not exactly sure how much free time they get together (I was in a Male Only division), but I know if you become part of "ship staff" you get some time away from your division to clean around the barracks and stand watches. So it's reasonable to believe two people could sneak off at some point and spend their time doing things they shouldn't be.

In the boot, if you have a brother/sister division, you will train together, and also have classes and stuff together in each others division. You will not SLEEP in the same compartment, but they are in the same hall.

You have a laundry room in the compartment, that is accessed through a door. A male can go into that laundry room, and open up a door that leads into the HALLWAY! Magic eh? The female and male have a pre-existing time to meet, and she runs to the door and knocks lightly. The male opens the door in the laundry room, and then they go into the drying room which is off the laundry room.

Thats where I heard all the stories of guys and girls hooking up. The watch was most likely in on it, and let the female go and the male watch knew what was going on.

I have heard stories of females getting caught IN THE RACK with another dude.

At night, an RDC will make ONE PATROL to drop off a paper that says the uniform of the day for the next day. This is how you know what to wear ( rain jacket, parka, gloves/winter cap if its freezing ) and after that, you won't see another RDC at night. So think about it...people plan that stuff out.

I would NOT recommend it. You get caught and its OVER.

Yet, you just told everyone how to do it

Realistically speaking, it's pretty much obvious to anyone who's been into the drying room/on laundry crew that it's the logical place to do anything you're not supposed to be doing, because the walls are thicker to contain the heat, which muffles noise.

I'm fairly certain my drying room was never used for that while I was LPO, but it was used for various other activities that didn't necessarily have to do with laundry.
