What was the best pre-1945 warship on which to serve for food and accommodation?
Short answerFor an officer, perhaps a Town-class cruiser; for a sailor, a destroyer might mean fewer people sharing cramped spaces.
NotesPre-1945 warships were generally cramped, so there is no luxurious answer. An officer enjoyed more space and might prefer a Town-class cruiser. An enlisted sailor could be better off on a destroyer because fewer people shared the available accommodation. The comparison shows why habitability depends on crew density and rank as much as on the ship's overall size.
