The Navy announced Monday that it has reprimanded a two-star admiral for getting drunk and wandering naked around a Florida beachfront hotel while attending a conference with defense contractors.
Rear Adm. David F. Baucom, the director of strategy and policy at the U.S. Transportation Command, became so intoxicated at an upscale beachfront resort in April that he struck his head on a barstool, wet his pants and needed an escort back to his room, according to an investigative report by the Naval Inspector General.
A few hours later, still in a haze, Baucom re-emerged from his room without any clothes on - as his door automatically locked behind him, the report states.
As the admiral stumbled around the grounds of the Ponte Vedra Inn and Club desperately looking for a towel to wrap around his waist, he was spotted by two alarmed female guests who reported him to hotel security.

That’s his story and he’s sticking to it.
LOL!!
He is a REAR Admiral, what you expect?
It was the strawberries....in the margaritas.
More like his dinghy.
...Make him walk the plank!
Even a 20-year-old Seamen should know better than to mix drinks like that.
No, that’s not my first thought. It never even occurred to me. It did occur to me that a flag officer doing this bullshit should be kicked out of the service ASAP, though.
Has this now become Zer0’s Navy where the top brass are slam their head drunk and up the creek without a paddle?
Now Hear This, Now Hear This. All Hands On D*ck! All Hands On D*ck!
Talk about the iconic phrase.....”like a drunken sailor.”
Active Duty ping.
This is the part that really bugs me.
The same sitting military leadership that enacted Obama’s faggotization of the armed forces. I have zero respect for them. To hell with them all!
He's free to not be an Admiral anymore.
A command requires dignity and self-respect.
One of Obama’s ?
