Home is where you hang your poopy suit.

Since I joined the Navy back in 2006, I have constantly been on the move. From bootcamp in Chicago, to school in Connecticut, to being stationed in Hawaii. My home requires constant looking after and upkeep to keep me and all of my brothers on board safe. We do this a lot of time without thanks and most of the stuff we do we can't tell anyone about. This brotherhood of submariners works hard to keep our homes in the best conditions to keep us out on the frontlines doing Americas bidding and keeping everyone stateside safe from all the people wanting to do us harm. When we get done and go to sleep, we take our "poopy suits" off and hang them up outside of our rack. The rack is our only private space and is where we reflect on the things we have done and are doing, as well as think of all the people "back home" that we are doing this for. It is a rewarding experience and I will leave my home soon a better son, brother, and friend. Just remember Home is where you hang your poopy suit!
