you don’t have to be a rank captain to be a ship’s captain (which is what CC is).

Glad to see NPR is more concerned about the bona fides of a cartoon ceral box character than those of our current CinC.

Fake scandal to distract the masses. There will be more!

A Commander in charge of a ship is referred to as “Captain”.

I wish NPR would continue their theme - fictional “leaders”.

Cap'n Crunch is an impostor. The Cap'n was unmasked on June 14 by a food blogger, who noticed the uniform he wears on cereal boxes had the stripes of a commander, not a captain. That is: A captain has four stripes on his sleeve, while a commander has three. As the story spread, the Navy confirmed what you might be fearing: Cap'n Crunch is a fraud, tricking innocent children since his introduction in 1963.

Shame on Crunch. He deserves to be chewed and swallowed.

Judging from this Captain's insignia, I am guessing he's a Captain in Some Rural Fire Department. AND he has FIVE stripes on his sleeve!

And that ladies and gentlemen, constitutes the absolute high point of NPR’s news gathering capabilities.

(found elsewhere)

Upon entering the Deutsche Reichsmarine in 1938, Leutnant (W.) Siegfried “Wolf” Crunch was assigned to the Torpedoboote “Aufschlagspritzer”, as assistant to the Besonderen Offizier T.O. (Torpedo Officer).

At the onset of war he was promoted and transferred to the Unterwasser-waffen branch as the political officer of Unterseeboote (U-boat) 133, which became notorious for its high tonnage of mostly unarmed cargo vessels (and several neutral ships), after he had taken command following the suspicious death of the ship’s Captain.

Assuming the field rank of Kapitan-leutnant (W.) (which was never confirmed), he soon began a reign of undersea terror and treachery unmatched in the war. Labled a “rogue” by German Naval HQ, his reckless brutality eventually caused his crew to mutiny, during which he managed to scuttle his submarine, at the loss of all hands, while making his way to an Argentinian trawler on a life raft.

Still a young man, he quickly amassed a fortune in South America, allegedly through the use of slave labor, and later was instrumental in the plot to assassinate Juan Peron.

Relocating to the United States in the early 1960’s, he was fired from his job at Kellogg’s for wanting to put sugar frosting on corn flakes, which they deemed “unhealthy”. But his invention of a secret process to keep cereal crunchy, even in milk, redeemed him with the breakfast-food industry and the rest is history.

Also, I don’t believe the Navy spells Captain Cap’n.

Also the Cap’n’s boat is unseaworthy.

Also the blue eyed white Cap’n doesn’t “look” like America.

Also the room of my mouth hurts for a week every time I eat a bowl of that stuff.

NPR hopes the captain crunch scandal deflects attention away from the myriad of Obama scandals bursting into flames all around him.

I trust NPR has also launched an investigations into Tony the Tiger and Sugarpops Pete. Meanwhile, the background of the world’s biggest imposter, Baraq Hussein 0bama, remains very cloudy.
