I see at least one single malt, so, I would allow the display, with benefits of course.

Ha, I thought it was going to be some sexually inappropriate picture or politically inappropriate item on the wall when I opened this. That is one awesome bar!

In the Corps when I was in, Sgt and below could not drink in the Barracks. It was not well thought out and those of legal drinking age should be able to drink at home. I think this has changed since the early 90's.

I don't know.. we had the same white blinds in our barracks and it didn't seem to be an issue.

The blinds I think are regulation, but that coax connector in the kitchen has to go.

I know I am getting old, but 50 years ago when Zumwalt authorized alcohol in the barracks, many decried it as the downfall of the sea services. Why, even back they they had Happy Hour on base, which made a lot of sense, but of course, that had to go. Better the military member drink of base and get picked up for DUI, than drink on base and stagger to his barracks.

LtCol Bruce Janis - I remember him well, I even sewed on his last gold strip for him when he was chief of naval ops.

It was a mixed bag. Drinking in the barracks was off limits at Quantico and at MCAS Cherry Point, you couldn't have alcohol in the barracks unless you were a SSgt or higher. Then when I got to Okinawa, they had a beer machine in the TV room, but no alcohol was allowed in your room unless you were a Sgt or higher. About 2 months later, no alcohol in the barracks again.
It was largely held up to the commanding general and Gen R. R. Porter (Drunk is dumb Porter) beer in the barracks became off limits again.
It would really have been nice to have consistency across all installations. At least you could expect the same treatment that way.
