Maybe it is a UK v US thing, or maybe times have changed, but when I was in the Royal Air Force such actions, while not welcomed would not be un-expected.

We slept in 20 man barrack rooms; showered communally; toileted in almost plain sight. We would know if someone went regimental or not.

You are after all on a military establishment in the middle of an active war zone, not in a public high street and the person concerned was not people, he was a fellow serviceman.

Sorry, but I think that you protest too much.

Regards

Chas
