Will,
The heavies were determined to have the last laugh though and hauled all the Navy folks over to the Bolling AFB (for pity's sake) for re-educati--err, "sensitivity" training provided courtesy a female contractor I guess when the Vietnamese did it to their folks (as they did post-1975) it was "bad," but it's OK when we do it to our own. -- Mike Kanze "Never catch snowflakes with your tongue until ALL the birds have gone south for the winter." - Anonymous "wdossel" wrote in message news On Sun, 26 Dec 2004 14:52:36 GMT, "Doug \"Woody\" and Erin Beal" wrote: On 12/26/04 8:20 AM, in article , "Pechs1" wrote: SNIP BTW-I was on the third floor until about 4am on Sunday and I didn't see or hear anything that could remotely be construted as a gauntlet, sexual harassment or anytimg else that the flag or press or the bitch Schroeder talked about. I was up there too (my first and only TH). The gauntlet was real. It was down by the elevators around midnight to 1 AM. IIRC there was a huge crowd most of the evening around the hall just dumping off of the elevators. I'd avoided it all evening by going around the patio outside and cutting through the suites to get to the far end of the hall.

I spent most of my timeout on the patio or the Prowler suite, walked out to the patio once in time to see them cleaning up the glass from when someone apparently pressed their butt cheeks against an upper window and broke it. Other than that had enough ATM receipts to prove I spent too much time in the casinos with buds. The funniest part was the next year at Whidbey when the IG showed up and herded us all over to the sim bldg for individual interrogations. I had two advantages in that I didn't see or do anything wrong but their techniques were pretty transparent to a bunch of SERE graduates. I suspect they got nothing new. Pugs Yeah, Pugs, the post-'Hook '91 IG interviews/interrogations rank up there as some of the dumbest stuff I've ever seen the Navy do. --Woody |

Doug- Yeah, Pugs, the post-'Hook '91 IG interviews/interrogations rank up
there as some of the dumbest stuff I've ever seen the Navy do. BRBR I think the dumbest was when 4 star Kelly(CINCPACFLT, I think) had every Naval Aviator in the area go to the theater on North Island where he proceded to put up young dear Paula's pic and whine about how we all failed HER!! Yikes, people couldn't get out of the NAV quick enough, me included. We would have been in genuine trouble if the likes of this putz was called upon to lead in a shooting war. P. C.
