In accordance with Navy tradition, submariners are thrown over the side of their boats to commemorate special occasions such as qualifying for their submarine dolphin insignia or ending a war patrol with an advancement in rating.

In 1960, six submariners from USS Amberjack (SS-522) who had earned their dolphins were thrown overboard just as a destroyer passed nearby. Unfamiliar with the tradition, the captain of the destroyer signaled "WHAT HAPPENED?" Amberjack responded "UNSHINED SHOES."

Thoughts and Feelings #3

That's it, im going commando.

My pen scratched with gale force as I signed the damned document. How eager a young nipper I was to join the Navy. My dream was to see their one-man band perform in the band stand from the comfort of the grandstand.

To hell with it all! I say, since the war ended and maritime radios weren't so trendy, the stollen-cake spies have been out of business.

'May Day, May Day!' I cried, into the gale-force winds. I dare confide my jolly sailor's cap unfixed from its jaunty angle, and unseamed me from the knave to the chaps! I digress, perchance.

I looked up then down then all around, what was a jolly giant doing in a place like this? As swift as a butter knife I dove into the water (Not to say we were anywhere near the cliffs of Dover! Oh how I do like to be beside the seaside...) Alas, I go on a tangent.

I write here now, on the back of a sperm whale, as an enemy of the state. Deserted, a deserter, what's for dessert?

Insanity is setting in. Judging by the position of the sun I can see it's nighttime, around 12am non-army time I will set my sights on the horizon, an enemy O' the state. I will swim with the fish and yell Sayonara to my old life.

Thanks for reading Not my best work, I saw Depeche mode last night and forgot to take any of my autism meds. But I felt like posting

Whenever I see any posts (rightly) making fun of military or navy recruitment trying to appeal to lbgtq people, I remember the music video for “In The Navy” and how that was supposedly done unknowingly and caused a huge scandal. Anybody who got fired for that at the time must be so pissed about the Navy drag queen recruitment ads.

[image description of the three images in this thread:

First: screenshot of tag #that makes the ‘man what are you doing here’ line way funnier

Second: screenshot of tag # “now John at the bar is a friend of mine who gets me my drinks for free” dude he has a crush on you

Third: screenshot of part of an article. Text reads “Well there's this new theory out there now, that it's actually about a gay bar. said Joel.

“I was reading this. And I said, 'Oh, I see how that could be.' Paul is talking to Davy who's in the Navy, you know," continued Joel, who began singing the Village People’s 1979 disco hit "In the Navy" which was embraced as an anthem by the LGBTQ community

"So, veah, there's a whole theory about it. He doesn't have time for a wife." he added.

Joel went on to say the he never intended for Paul, Davy or any of the other characters in "Piano man" to be gay.

*I never considered that, but I see it now," he said, adding, "It's very funny, actually."]

you know who’s gay? paul the real estate novelist who never had time for a wife and davey who’s still in the navy and probably will be for life

In 1944 a kitten named George (short for General Electric) was saved from drowning by a U.S. Navy crew member. George was then photographed and given a liberty card and detailed health record. Source.
