Here's a few hints and tips. For the footlocker, line the tray with a bath towel. It gives a neater appearance. Have a plain white bath towel, hand towel and a wash clothe to hang off the end of the bunk. Soldiers also hung their laundry bag and gas mask bags on the end of the bunks too. To make a pair of socks go farther in the footlocker display, take one OD green sock, and pair it up with a current day dress or gym sock. They are rolled into a ball. Just make sure that the OD Green one covers the current one.

All weapons (Firearms) and ammo are to be stored in the armory.

Try to have two key padlocks. One for the footlocker and one for the wall locker. Keep them locked at all times.

Bring a small pocket notebook and a fountain type pen.

Whenever an OFFICER enters the barracks, bring the group to attention, with a loud and clear "TEN HUT!" Immediately come to attention until the officer gives us the "As you were". If a female enters the barracks and they will be there, please announce them with "FEMALE IN THE BARRACKS!"

Please note that we do not use terms like: DECK (unless you are playing cards). It is the floor. It is a wall, ceiling, steps and latrine. WE DO NOT USE NAVY TERMS.
