Bobo sends a link to the report of a party which will probably end several Naval careers from the Navy Times<\/a>. It seems that mixed ranks were at a house-warming party for a female officer which, of course resulted in the day-long consumption of adult beverages;<\/p>\n

Then, something startled her guests, a mix of colleagues from her command, friends and neighbors: The host stripped off her bikini top.<\/p>\n

The party \u2014 while not an official command function \u2014 included enlisted, junior officers, and even the commanding officer of her 100-member logistics task force based in Bahrain. The sight of her topless changed the party\u2019s dynamic. Men drew closer to leer. Another woman removed her top. And a man took off his pants, exposing himself. While guests stared, all three went skinny-dipping.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s when the commodore jumped in.<\/p>\n

Capt. David Geisler, commodore of the logistics task force responsible for supplying all naval assets in 5th Fleet, who had spent the afternoon drinking and floating in an inner tube on the canal, removed his bathing suit and swam nude, witnesses said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Way to lead from the front, there, Captain. I think they probably screwed up in a major way when they had lower enlisted people at an officer’s home. I’m not saying the seamen did anything wrong, but for some reason they have an effect on officers who are under the influence of distilled spirits. Otherwise rational people do stupid shit around privates. <\/p>\n

I have no idea why men feel that taking their pants off is the same thing as women removing their shirts. That usually kills a moment. And you can be pretty sure that it was the seamen who reported their commander for swimming in the all together.<\/p>\n

Told ya;<\/p>\n

Sailors saw a double standard \u2014 they heard tales of their commodore at wild parties and rumors that he and his \u201ccrew\u201d had been out past curfew, transgressions for which they\u2019d be punished.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Privates are never your friends. But officers behaving like this is not something anyone should condone. I’d say he ruined his career, but, if he thought that swimming nude and boozing it up in front of his subordinates was OK, he probably didn’t have much of a career anyway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
