...male officers must be "Officers and Gentlemen."

Are females referred to as "Officers and Ladies?" Or did they get rid of the salutation?

They did away with the "Officer and Gentleman" wording more than 45 years ago.

Don't talk to me about naval tradition...


If there are any lady navy officers willing to explore the rest of that quote with me, give them my number.

The navy needs to dump DEI and get back to ass kicking and Tailhook conventions.

All the nancy boys of today would get PTSD from a true Crossing the Line ceremony.
