they live in what's called a CHU (combat housing unit). It's basically a small tin trailer. In most units, officers and enlisted who are E6 and above get their own chu, and E5 and below share a chu with one other person.

Agreed on the CHUs, but only our CO, XO, and maybe 1SG got their own CHU. I think policy was field grade officers or E-8 and above got their own CHU. Warrant officers had roommates, at least up through CW-4. I'm not sure about our sole CW-5. Everyone E-7 and below had roomies. E-5 and below could be three to a CHU, but that was usually temporary (a month or two) and they were mostly set up for two men.
