The change heralded by the Gerald R. Ford class of carriers starting with the namesake carrier due in late 2015 is one of a number of new features meant to improve sailors' quality of life and reduce maintenance costs.Say WHAT!!??? This guy should NOT sell used cars because his line of BS just doesn't fly!!
Thank GOD I served in the Navy when it was still an actual fighting force and NOT a feminazi R&D project!! I'd be drummed out if I were in the Navy today!!

Do Sailors ever pee off the side of the large battleships? Is it “hard” to do?

How does a regular toilet force you to sit while urinating. I dont have urinals in my house and I stand to urinate. Ya, but your house isn't the USS Fighting Goddess. Admiral Pat Bigbottom is considering welding the lids shut to reduce cooties and to create uniform protocol. A navy of one, so to speak.

Thats swell!
Swells hitting our ship's hull at either 090 or 270 degrees relative created beautiful geysers in the shi**ers.

I couldn’t remember if they used seawater or not, and to be honest, I never tasted to check. :)

Will male sailors be ordered to sit to pee and leaving a seat in the upright position become a court martial offense?

“Do Sailors ever pee off the side of the large battleships? Is it hard to do?”
It would be hard to do now, since there are no more battleships in service.
When I was on the Iowa, I never tried to pee over the side, although it wouldn’t have been difficult. I’m tryin to think how much trouble I could have gotten into if I had been caught doing it. I think a lot of paint would be involved, and a Bosun’s Chair, and no liberty....

First time I ever saw the Ranger, she was anchored off Diamondhead. Seems she got kicked ot of Honolulu for tearing up the EM club at Pearl.
Is it true that she got kicked out of her homeport, also?

Will male service members be written up for leaving the seat up? Secretary of the Navy Rosie Beast, is considering disciplinary actions in regards to the new accommodations, which might include potty training.

Looks like this where the Navy sailors take an OBAMA.
