What was it the Duke of Wellington said ? When shown a list of officers the War Department proposed to send him he replied:
"I don't know if they frighten the enemy but by God they frighten me !"
I note that Navy Times page has several other stories concerning sex offenses by Navy personnel.Comment

Or as Admiral John Jervis said, "Promotion to the flag has happily removed from the command of ships men who at no time in their lives were fit to command so much as a rowing boat."What was it the Duke of Wellington said ?

When I was a kid I knew there were some queers somewhere. They weren't in my neighborhood. I spent four years in the navy(but not shipboard). I never saw any weirdo behavior. But then, this was Texas, not San Diego. Once in a great while I see some flaky looking guy but for the most part, people act normally around here. Don't let the underworld dictate what is normal. Just because you see it on Jerry Springer that doesn't make it the norm.If I should die before I wake...great,a little more sleep.Comment
