Sort of related to the previous post

From January of this year. 180 degrees from the previous post. This was a direct result of the fallout after tailhook. For the old warhorses who read this know what that was.
Serves to say that the Navy has never been the same since.
And there were other things from long ago as it were. The Hospital Ship Sanctuary had severe issues with fraternization and the Samuel L. Gompers to a certain degree.
But when I saw this last winter, well..............................yeah. And Captain Graf's younger sister is a Rear Admiral(LH). Lower Half OK? That is a BGEN in the other Forces. One star.
If the reader gets the idea that I am of a certain opinion, then so be it. When I went in the Navy, the women were still called WAVES.
It is by and large a generational difference. But being reared by a Dad who was in the M1, M14 and then the M16 Army, would you expect anything else.
Sort of like the young Navy LT Hornet Pilot on USS Nimitz in the PBS series Carrier. Upset that her stateroom was on the 03 level. This is directly under the flight deck. Noisy. Really Noisy. And understand that on a carrier, catapult launches and arrested landings can be heard on the mess decks, HMMMMMMMMMMM?
