Am I the only person that thinks sometime soon, a US Navy recruiter somewhere is gonna show that picture to a prospective recruit and say something along the lines of "Join the Navy, see the world, watch hotties make out!"?

Could be a good way to keep the homophobes out of the military - just blow it up to poster size and stick it on the wall at the recruitment station. :D

A freind of mine went for that line - he ended up in the submarine core.

what the fuck are you trying to say
"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

USN subs are still all-male, though that's going to change in the not too distant future. So no "hotties" onboard, or at least not as commonly understood. ;)

SEE THE WORLD?

see hotties make out?

1. SUBMARINE CORE - think about it.

2. Uk doesn't allow female crew on subs.

Yet. The RN has already set a schedule for deployment of women on submarines starting 2013.

Do you mean Submarine CORPS? Because you could have been trying to say that he was working in a submarine reactor CORE for all the clarity that was.

And I don't think submariners are referred to as a "corps" either. In fact, they certainly are not referred to as such in the USN, and the RN-USN share a lot of terminology.

ah.

core to corps (to crops to corpse) is pretty easy but pretty damn stupid. apologies.

and you're right, it's the Royal Navy Submarine Service

I blame receiving the news from an excited Welshman who watches to many 'nam films.


EDIT: and being a congenital idiot. that helps too.

I do believe they're still called "The Silent Service." Don't ask, don't tell, eh?
