Also, do you think that there should always be a CQ on duty?

I'm all for it. If there are Soldiers that can't handle it or do the wrong thing then they should get a one way ticket home.

I've been in a position like this going through training right before I commissioned. We all slept on the same floor and only a curtain divided our sleeping areas (females in rooms with the door open at the back of the floor, males in the open bay area). When the females were changing, we would shut our doors but had to open them immediately after. We shared a bathroom with a sign you had to flip over to say what gender was occupying the latrine. The hardest time was when some guys wanted to take midnight showers and females had to wait on the steps (it's from all the water we drank all day). No SHARP complaints though. We were all adults that respected each other, knew the rules and consequences, and it worked out well...yes we did have a fire guard. It's very useful to help prevent inappropriate incidents.

never had this issue in the 80s and 90s as there were no females in combat arms but a few of us were known to use the windows for entrance and exit of the female barracks...so just put them on the same floor and we save the broken window frames!
