In the UK at least most people in port towns know the reality of life in the Navy/Marines.
Most of the time they are ashore in barracks, and when they are at sea, all they see is the sea.
"Join the Navy and see the world"
No. Apart from barracks, they see the sea.
It is a far more attractive life in the Merchant Navy.
PS. In World War One, the so-called German High Seas fleet didn't have sleeping accommodation on board. They expected to be in port every night...
That's funny Ogg. Contrasting different nations approach to their Navies.
Naval historians make quips about the French battle ships being proof that a warship could double as a 5 star cruise ship.
