Re: soldier's accomodation.
The earlier posted photographs may infact have been solidiers accomodation, but they are unsourced. How typical that is, I am unable to say. I do however have a friend in the army, and he lives in the Palladian splendour of Wellington Barracks in London's Knightsbridge, just a short hop to his, and the other soldiers who live there, corner shop Harrods.
I'm sure that service personnel throughout the world sometimes live in less than perfect situations. This I presume is part of the deal when you sign up to serve Queen and country.
I did find this press release from the Army about accomodation.
