Theunicornhunter 2 Posted May 7, 2003 I know there is a thread going on re: whether star fleet is military. Now here's a silly question - but if that were so could they get away with messy quarters? If you're in the military aren't you supposed to be able to bounce a dime on your bed - or is that just in basic training? We've seen a few episodes with messy crewman. Just another something to think about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A l t e r E g o 9 Posted May 7, 2003 That’s not too silly, I recall in ST6, If I remember correctly, crews quarters not occupied with sleeping crewpersons, were immaculate (before they were torn apart in the search.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Jean-Luc Picard 1 Posted May 7, 2003 I think Stafleet is an evolved form of military, thus allowing crewmen the luxury of having a messy quarters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ddillard 2 Posted May 8, 2003 I think that considering that they are on the ship for years at a time they are given more leway to be comfortable in their own quarters. It is not like the current millitary where the soldiers usually get to go home for at least a couple days every few months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
