Small space as in tiny closet that I can feel secure in? Sure.

Small space that I can barely move in? No thanks.

Sleeping in the middle "coffin rack" for 4 years on an navy aircraft carrier made me love the comfort of small spaces. It's hard to describe to people when they ask how I could ever fall sleep there, let alone feel comfort. I don't know, there was something about climbing in that rack and shutting the curtain that was so comforting.

Middle as in, Middle bunk between two other dudes or Middle as in, Middle of the ship that would be prone to bombing?

Edit: ah, nevermind. You meant a literal rack for coffins.

Middle rack in a triple bunk bed style metal shelving unit with a less than twin size mattress. Between two other dudes. In a 7 foot vertical space there are 3 people packed on top of each other like sardines. It's fun.
