Sailors could live in RVs or houseboats as Navy overhauls barracks
The Navy is planning major upgrades to barracks for junior sailors, which will require temporary housing for thousands of personnel. To address this need, Navy officials are seeking ideas from private companies for temporary accommodations. Possible solutions include pre-built homes, trailers, and houseboats.
The goal is to provide suitable housing during the renovation period. Further details on the Navy's plans and the request for information from private companies can be found through official Navy channels, including a recent release from Navy Installation Command officials and a posting on SAM. gov.
