struggles to complete his SISI truck force.
We're stepping into the lower levels of Pioneer Station today. Not for us the shiny science lab, the calm efficiency of the command center, or even the clinical medical center. Nope, today we hit the head. Any sailors will know exactly where we're going with this. For those not in the know, 'The Head' is the bathroom – according to the U.S. Navy website '
The term "head" is one of those terms from the age of sail that has stuck around until now. The head is the bathroom, and the term comes from the fact that in old square-rigged sailing ships, the wind was almost always from astern (Connell and Mack). Therefore, Sailors would go to the "head" of the ship so as to not relieve themselves "into the wind."
So now you know.
Our head consists of two toilet cubicles, a shower cubicle, and a sink unit. You can buy them as a set, or each part individually. The cubicles even have opening doors, and there's room inside for a 28mm figure to do… whatever they need to do. The Brigadier looks particularly proud of this one.
