U.S. Navy 1935
An impeccable source says these are U.S. Navy personnel on a cruiser in 1935.
The partioned showers don't seem right, unless that was a perk for officers.
This would have been for officers. The first ("prospective") commanding officer of a new-built ship has some input on arrangements and he may have specified partitioned showers like this. This relative privacy was probably sacrificed as the ship was prepared for war-Dee Exx
If I had to take a shower with these two, the partition would have been essential to avoid problems! They are magnificent!!!!
ReplyDeleteI agree, Albert.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Dee.
DeleteMy ship was built 10 years later in 1945. I was an enlisted man, and all of our showers were partitioned, complete with shower curtains.

Well that was no fun!
DeleteThat's really surprising for that era-Dee Exx
DeleteThat's a shame! Barracks showers are more fun.
DeleteNicely built gentleman with nothing to hide. A wonderful shot.
