They've also started strapping a couple of these down on the flight deck.

Just to get the aircrew ready in case they need to RON in theater...

If you are a squadron commander, you share a bathroom with one other person.
If you're with the rest, it's you're high school gym bathroom.
 
A typical enlisted berthing will have 3-4 showers, 3-4 commodes and a couple of urinals. To be used by the 80-100 people in there. Officer's heads vary.

Chamber pots for all, the admirals just get ornate ones.
On the world's newest, largest, highest tech warship USS RONALD REAGAN (CVA-76), they would consider the above "pots" a luxury lately... at sea, they have been experiencing random 1/2 to total failure of the ships 'hi-tech' waste disposal system (toilets/urinals). Reports are that sinks, tubs, plastic bags, and "Omigod", overboard from sponsons have been resorted to for relief. This was reported approx a week or two ago, can't track down if the system is back on line again. Think about it...that's a serious problem!!!:eek:

Sounds like the Gipper is being run by Carnival Cruise folks.

Finally a thread with the hard hitting questions and in-your-face answers that I frequent AirWarriors to read about!

Sequestration talk and that dude with the crazy "what % get what after sequestration" or whatever graphs was getting lame.

Yes but you can only find 1 head open at any given time, and half the shitters and pissers are secured because they are backedup.

Just for the record I have to correct the OP - there are NO bathrooms on a ship - only heads..... :eek:
