    i’ve never served in the Navy or even been on board ship, but fraternization between officers and enlisted in all services is pretty strictly forbidden… and counselors and therapists would probably be officers in most cases… but casual socialization is normally totally off limits… simple reason being, officers have to order enlisted people into danger, so there can’t be appearance of favorites…

    fraternization among the officers is normal, though and has been part of life aboard ships forever
