Lets see if I remember there were 2 stalls in the crews and one in the Goat locker and then 2 in officer country. We had plenty as I don't ever remember it being an issue. Here is a funny sea story for you. When we came to PD we had maintenance issues we dealt with such as radio traffic and shooting the trash disposal unit and we also blew our sanitary tanks. Now San2 was the tank for the toilets and we would pressurize that tank and then open a valve to sea and blow all the refuse out. Now you went around and hung signs on all the stalls saying we were blowing San2 because you don't want to be opening the ball valve in an attempt to flush your toilet because what will happen is referred to as blowing San2 inboard. So I have the tank pressurized and ready to go when I hear the unmistakable roar of San2 being vented inboard. I hop out of the bilge and run upstairs to find the idiot and find a cook laughing his head off pointing down the hallway to a new ensign who was standing there covered from head to toe. His glasses hung sideways on his face and he had toilet paper all over the place sticking to him. Damndest site I've ever seen. I wish I had had a camera. The cook told me he opened that valve and released the brown telephone pole into the sub getting blasted backwards and then fought his way through the volcano of sewage in attempt to get that valve shut again. Hilarious!!!! Well I guess you had to be there:)
