Navy Support Facility Diego Garcia  Housing

Living conditions on the island are excellent and personnel are normally assigned permanent rooms upon arrival. Those who are E-5 and below are assigned one person to a room, when available (can be doubled up depending on manning requirements); E-6 and above have private quarters.

All bachelor enlisted quarters have a common lounge with a color TV, a pool table, a common kitchen with a range, an oven and a microwave. The BEQs are also equipped with an adequate number of washers and dryers. No open cooking or flame-producing cookware is permitted in the BEQs (BEQ17 has kitchenettes located on all first-deck quarters, which are designated for senior E-6). However, microwave ovens, popcorn poppers and coffee pots are authorized. All bachelor officer quarters are equipped with kitchenettes. TVs and VCRs are available to all BEQ and BOQ rooms.

There is no family housing available; all orders to Diego Garcia are unaccompanied.
