The Army's single Soldier barracks have been renovated or newly constructed with the needs of the Soldier in mind. Usually a Soldier will find general purpose wash rooms somewhere in the barracks for washing boots, backpacks, and other muddy items so they don't have to clean their equipment in their bathrooms. He or she will also find the Army has built living accommodations that Soldiers don't have to share with each other. Today's living quarters are generally attached to a bathroom and an apartment-style kitchen area that two Soldiers share, and some rooms are built with walk-in closets that even have industrial hooks mounted on the wall for military issue gear.

Come on in. Over here we have the little kitchen area. In here I have, me personally, I like to keep a lot of food in the refrigerator just in case when I get off work just grab a bite to eat or something like that. You have a full kitchen here, you can either cook something on the stove or in the microwave or you can go across the street to the chow hall.

This is the laundry room come check it out. This is the place where you no longer have to fight over who gets the dryer first. You have a number of washers and dryers to use in here at your disposal and my room is right down the hallway. So you see how long, it didn't take me that long to get here.

This is the mud room, where a lot of guys when they come out of the field and they have most of their gear instead of them taking it up to their room when its all muddy and dirty straight from coming out of the field, you just come in here, give it a quick wash. It pretty nice to have over here it's convenient.

Welcome to my room, all right over here you have the bedroom area, my dogs here, over here my little DVD player, my television. So when I'm at work, I mean when I get off work, I just come here and just watch a movie, lay back in the bed, chill, kick it, friends come over, hey. Over here I have my little DVD setup, I like the newest DVD and things that come out so I always like to sit over here and watch movies and relax and whatever.
