“To ensure sustained operational capability in wartime and peacetime, it is important to quickly relieve crews’ operational fatigue. We will make major improvements to shipboard living conditions,” Defense Vice Minister Lee Doo-hee said.
Lee visited the Navy’s 2nd Fleet Command on April 27 to inspect shipboard living conditions and barracks facilities for sailors and to encourage service members, the Ministry of National Defense said.
The on-site inspection was arranged to push ahead with tasks recommended by a joint civilian-government-military special advisory panel to improve living conditions for troops’ physical and mental recovery, and with defense reform efforts to improve barracks conditions, the ministry said.
Lee toured crew sleeping quarters aboard the destroyer Eulji Mundeok (DDH-I), which was docked at the 2nd Fleet naval base, and reviewed areas needing improvement.
He also checked conditions at an onshore dormitory used by enlisted sailors assigned to fast patrol craft and other vessels.
“We will continue improving conditions so that, while ship crews are waiting on shore, the onshore dormitory is a place for adequate rest and recovery,” Lee said.
