Sailor.
Has it occurred to you that the Javelin crews may have wanted time to acclimatise to the tropics (I very much doubt a month, on the choppers during Bersatu Padu we got about three days), whereas the Navy, not travelling as fast as a Javelin, had already become acclimatised.
Further to your complaint about accommodation, I don't believe a word of it and, I think if you are honest, neither do you.
