The George H.W. Bush is an aircraft carrier. A BIG aircraft
carrier. That is, it’s got hundreds of crewmembers on board, and they all poop and pee.
I mention that obvious bit of info because the George H.W.
Bush doesn’t have hardly any working toilets. (These are called “heads” on a
ship.)
Sailors have had to pee in “showers, sinks and bottles.” And
Officer Richard Frakes says he’s had to search for nearly an hour to find a
flushing toilet. “It definitely affects my morale. When I was unable to relieve
myself for two days, I was irate to say the least.”
I’ll bet! (Story from the Virginian Pilot.)
