My impression of the navy is that they live on boats out to sea for months at a time and then get like 3 weeks ashore before repeating. So do sailors just not have a land life? Is nobody in the navy allowed to own pets? Where does your mail go? What about a family life?

14 year Air Force vet here. Serious follow up question: So, usually younger, first term enlisted are mandated to live in on base dormitories in the Army and Air Force. Do younger Navy enlisted still live on the ship when it is in port (sorry for the terminology), in other words, is the ship used as a, “barracks,” when tied to the dock? Or, do they then reside in dormitories that are on land at Bremerton, Norfolk, San Diego, etc when not at sea?
