Sure, let's just select the Blue Angels for diversity instead of ability now, too, and dismiss the best pilots if they're not perfectly PC.

That'll work out well.

Hell, we got a complaint about the "Don't drink and drive" posters because one featured a barmaid holding a tray of beers and she showed some cleavage.
It was a poster delivered by Offciaial Navy channels and programs.

It's weird how he wasn't even at the Blue Angels anymore, just now the allegations surface.

I'll bet it's a form of retribution.

Cary recalled that her stint working for McWherter ended when he left Japan for the Blue Angels in 2008. "People cried when he left. The climate and morale in that command was at an all-time high."

You need to sit through a SHARP class. Basically the Army (and I assume the rest of the Armed Forces) is going full retard with the zero tolerance combined with massive overreaction.

When Sgt Snorkle tells Pvt.  Bailey to walk point, instead of Pvt.  Snugglebunny, it damned sure *IS* "detrimental to morale" if there is *ANY* doubt in Pvt. Bailey's mind that Pvt. Bailey is walking point because it is Pvt. Bailey's turn to walk point, rather than the fact that Pvt. Snugglebunny fucks Sgt. Snorkle - regardless of the particular gender of Pvt. Snugglebunny.

Things we have all learned from the DoD's full retard over-reaction.  

If a woman has had any amount of alcohol she cannot consent to sex.

Any sex you have with any woman with any amount of alcohol in her system is rape.

Nearly all men, therefore, are rapists.
