So...we are living in the enlisted barracks. Let's just say I would probably rather live in the Jester dorms at UT. After buying some bedding at the PX and Swiffer-ing the floors, it turned out pretty cozy.
When we first arrived, Amanda and I described the odor as "urine and cigarette smoke....and broccoli?" Also, the first rule of thumb is never use the enlisted men's kitchen. I'm pretty sure I'll get the herp if I try and cook food in there. Although, someone did try and spruce up the place by leaving a picture of their parents (?) on the counter.
Pro: We get free laundry
Con: It's one of the dirtiest rooms I've seen in my life.
I do appreciate the US Army providing us with free housing for 3 months in Germany. It's like being in college again. Amanda and I are sharing a room and the PCO students are next door. We also have access to the Rec center and food halls on base.
Currently the barracks are quiet because most of the soliders are out in the field. I hear it should get pretty interesting once they all get back to post.
