Mess Hall was segregated into EM section, PO section and Officer's section. The one time I was on a ship food was also served by rank.
Two times I went out on subs it was more relaxed - but the officers still had their own room - I think. Wasn't really paying that much attention.

When we use the APSS Sealion in 69 they had O & EM mess. The cooks were contracted and Philipean. My understanding is they were working for Green Cards??
All the SF guys used the O mess. Food was outrageous, like a 5star. Probably had to do with the sub having two O6 skippers. It was one of the last trips before it was decommissioned.
We also use the O beach on Truman Annex for night compass & 2K swims.
Never use the KW NAS clubs,, we all went to a bar called the White Horse. on the corner of White St & Truman Ave.
