You apparently haven’t become a shell back or a blue nose.

I’m not Navy, but even I know that

Polliwogs cross the Equator and are initiated as Shellbacks.

Bluenoses cross the Arctic Circle and are initiated as Polar Bears.

Anyway, the oh-my-oh-horrors scandal about this vid is that it’s about liking women, and it makes fun of gays.

The officer who produced it may have shown poor judgement in today’s PC climate, but he did nothing wrong. Bottom line, end of discussion. If he is punished, then G-d help our military and the United States.

Another ceremony that has become totally pussyfied. It started after Tailhook with the crackdown on all ceremonies/initiations and went downhill fast after that. The last time I crossed the line I would have rather just took the watch but I was King Neptune. Mixed gender crew = totally lame ceremony, but even the last all-male ceremony I went through was on the lame side, just not as lame.

Seven ships, crossed the line on every one of them.
