Modesty? Nah.
This is a rare example of military showering where some provisions for modesty were made.
They were not, however, used as both GIs seem to have left the curtains open.
When was this taken? Back in the day, the assumption was that nobody peeked because nobody was interested. Too bad that has gone completely the opposite direction.
Je me pose la question est-ce vraiment des douches militaires? La pudeur à l'armée, c'est très rare !!!! ************** I ask myself the question are these really military showers? Modesty in the army is very rare!!!!
I might be able to elaborate on the showering questions. Officers from all branches of the military almost always had the better bathroom facilities. While they might not have individual showers, they had more privacy and usually hot water. That was seldom the case for the enlisted. As a side note, the different branches treated their soldiers differently. The army being the least concerned about their soldiers welfare and the Air Force soldiers being treated noticeably better on the treatment scale.

ReplyDeleteThe source didn't date it, but said they were GIs. The plumbing looks mid-20th Century.

I shared your question, Albert. All I can say is that the source that provided the info is usually quite reliable. Maybe officers?
DeleteCould just be facilities they commandeered.
DeleteStrange there are curtains on the entrance to the stall, but none between the stalls.
ReplyDeleteI noticed that, too, and it is odd.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Greggy! That all makes a lot of sense.
DeleteI was a bit less focused on mid-20th-century plumbing and shower curtains than those two beautiful butts!
ReplyDeleteWell, I suppose they are worth mentioning.
