    If you enlisted, E5 and below you will be living in open bay warehouse with bunk beds and wall lockers like a homeless person with other 50 people, and shower, restroom will be in trailers. Don't expect to live like these people on a video.

      Yea which is not necessarily so bad I’ve been twice in the last 3 years and this is a terrible example for all troops but the worst accommodations are still 5 star compared to other deployments . It’s not bad at all and if you’ve been anywhere other than here you’d be extremely thankful.

      @@pinkextra305jetsetter4 Depends on your rank, where in Kuwait they send you, and if it is a PCS or a deployment. What they showed is accurate for Camp Arifjan but applies mostly to higher ranks as as well as civilians. Lower enlisted may get thrown in a bay BCT-style.
      Then there are the people that get sent to Camp Buehring. I don’t know what it is like there now but back in 2016 E-4 and below lived in tents with at least 15-20 people and E-5 and above lived in containers with between three and six people (some of the seniors had more private containers). You could all but forget about seeing any indoor plumbing there.

      I think they should add that this for special assignments only. I was at Buehring under OEF, 12 years ago, and most troops were in tents with plywood dividers, or 6 person room multi unit CHU’s. I know a lot has changed, but I’m not sure this is for typical OIR troops.

    Maybe if you're a high-ranking officer. All of us lower enlisted, and NCOs living at arifjan Zone 6 1400 block had concrete floors in steel buildings with bunk beds and wall lockers. At beuhring, we lived in tents with plywood floors and bunk beds. Bathrooms are Porta pottys filled with moth balls and showers were dirty trailers. It's not like this at all. So don't be fooled. These spoiled officers are living in mansions compared to the trash conditions the real soldiers live in. Working 16 hours in 140-degree heat at the spod. This video just makes me mad as hell. They're lying to you troop. You'll never see any of this stuff. Except the zone 6 food court, that part is real. The oasis dfac was zone 1 and all the officers who looked down their noses at the Joe's went there. Beuhring had one dfac and an overflow tent dfac. They had a small food court, too, and the desert diamond Asian food. The subway guys a beuhring were the best. Give you double everything and not make you pay for it.
