I missed the memo. It was an important memo, too -- the one to bloggers that said to be sure and bring shower shoes onto the USS Kearsarge. Apparently foot fungus , known as "jungle rot" in military jargon, can be one of the more serious health problems onboard, and everyone knew it but me. Fortunately, I now have camouflage Crocs. I bought them for a camping trip to Montana earlier this year but never got to wear them there because it was unseasonably cold. Turns out they’re perfect for walking around a Navy ship -- and wearing while you shower.
