      I don’t know about gift shops, but definitely fast food and probably clothes too.

      Yep, there’s a guy buying shoes in one of the Wikipedia article’s pictures. Appliances and electronics too. Anything a soldier could reasonably want to buy, although apparently they have their own brand for auto sales, as opposed to a chain.

      Navy SEALs eating government-supplied but non-free Big Macs as bullets whistle overhead is just the most aggressively American. I also get a kick out of soda fountains on submarines, although it makes total sense from an engineering perspective.

      So, what’s the MOS code for Hooters specialist?
