What US Navy Sailors Do During Their Off Time

As we all know, defending a country is not an easy task. Doing so requires great power and with great power, comes great responsibility. As soon as a naval warship is deployed from its port, its crew members onboard must work constantly and ceaselessly to ensure the ship is operational and ready to provide naval support at all times.

On warships like destroyers, naval sailors are required to be active for most hours of the day. At some point, however, these soldiers are relieved of their daily chores and given the chance to take a breather. What do these sailors do during their invaluable spare time? Let us find out how they let off some steam.

It is a wellknown fact that being a US Navy sailor is not an easy occupation. It requires being isolated at sea for long periods and away from their loved ones. As part of their initial training, these soldiers are made to understand the hazards that come with being a naval sailor. While they are at sea, they can be exposed to bad weather, drowning, shipwrecks, and many other dangers aboard the ship. This part of their training helps them prepare for and avoid such occupational hazards.
