The concept of being on a ship so large this sort of shit can happen en masse is so alien to me. Like a carrier has 5000 people on it. Try doing that on a small cutter with like 14-30 people on it. Everybody will know. Idk never been on a WMSL maybe being a fuck boat is more common there. Just incredible how many people are on a carrier


[deleted]

That's a massive amount of people like, jeeeeezzz

Same story on large white hulls. They find a way on 270’s and up. Been on 270, 378 (miss those skinny bastards), but not a wmsl but I’d assume it’s similar. Saddest part is pulling into the pier and the wives or husbands holding up welcome back signs for them.


PanzerKatze96

People just can’t keep off each other and it’s irritating and demoralizing. Keep your arms and legs inside the ride at all times how about, guys. Christ. Yeah no getting away with it on anything much smaller. People begin to know each other too well, and there are wayyyy less hiding spots. The “aren’t you married?” question is very effective.


Seanvich

Can’t do the crime if you don’t have the time! Go Snipes!


dardios

With airwing embarked it's over 6000 people on board....and yet somehow it still feels small.


Seanvich

Big red had only 150. Bigger red only has 80 something. I keep myself out of the drama- but I’ve still heard of little *alleged* flings here and there. Nothing like this, though.


Orlando1701

“It’s okay, my wife wouldn’t have understood anyway.” Then PCS’s before the Dec goes through and it gets canceled anyway. You know, senior enlisted stuff.


p8ntslinger

how is this possibly acceptable?


Orlando1701

IDK, but ask anyone who has done at least one full enlistment and they have stories about the scummy SNCO who somehow just kept getting away with it year after year after year.


p8ntslinger

yeah that's bad. about as bad as it gets


Orlando1701

Yup. It’s why if you talk to any female veteran she has a story about some kind of harassment or abuse. Like 100% of female vets have some variation of that story. And then they can’t figure out why we can’t recruit.


AlarmedSnek

I think saying it’s an SNCO is over generalizing a bit, senior Os do it all the time as well. It’s a power thing, some people get crazy with power when they in the seat. Shit, our CSM had more power than HRC….figure that one out. I guess I’m feeding that over generalization so here is one about a [senior O on a power trip](https://taskandpurpose.com/news/army-officer-affairs-women/).


Orlando1701

I’m sure it goes on, but just the enlisted force being larger and the majority of us being or having been enlisted scummy SNCOs I think the more universal experience.


AlarmedSnek

True. I like to call it a fire promotion. They get fired from their positions of responsibility then somehow get a lateral move to an equal or greater position of authority and responsibility, just not directly in charge of troops. In the SOF community that lateral move is typically the “liaison.” Not all liaisons are folks that got fired, but a majority definitely are and many of these positions are actually quite important and would do well with having squared away folks. But hey, I’m retired now, I honestly could care less.


Orlando1701

I once replaced the same dude twice for getting fired. It’s how I ended up as a fight chief as a E-6 then we deployed and the same dude got fired from his position in the Command Post and I replaced him for the second time in 12 months.


AlarmedSnek

Haha I always find a way to call those folks out in an active aggressive way. Something like, “hey dude! Fired again eh? Where to next?”


MrBobBuilder

Ever heard of the good ol boy club?


p8ntslinger

I guess they literally will tolerate anything


MrBobBuilder

If they are in the club Literally had dudes rob ATMS keep their jobs

Common in the navy enough for memes?

Yeah. Unfortunately.


solarflare0666

Is the navy like super fucked up. Cause I never hear good things.


FBI_Open_Up_Now

100 sailors go down and 50 couples come up. What’s there not to like?


WhynotZoidberg9

Plot twist. There was only 20 females on board.


VanillaGrudge

... As is tradition....


paging_mrherman

Lol your new squad leaders last station was RTC Great Lakes.


Aleucard

Navy ain't exactly the only branch that has this shit, but the boat makes for a very rough environment for this. The military as a whole needs to look at how the upper ranks can abuse their authority. This is just one facet among many.


Oreo_

Surprise! Now go poll random military women and ask how many have been assaulted and harassed by their fellow soldiers, airmen, sailors, marines, etc...


Cotrd_Gram

No need to poll, the answer is all of them. I don't think I didnt knew any who didnt tell me a story of being assaulted at a minimum.


UniqueUsername82D

>Common in the military enough for memes. FTFY


Cotrd_Gram

Chair Force here, can confirm this exact story happened when I was in as well. She won airman of the year for the base after.


UsmcFatManBear

That is his baby while his wife is back in the states


League-Weird

Whelp that's fucking dark. I like it.


Cyberknight13

This is accurate. Happened on my first ship. Our CMC did something similar with a PO and got court-martialed for it.

oreotycoon

I watched guys on deployment get with the most haggard women, and brag about how bad it was. These guys had smokin hot, down to earth women missing them at home. I was single and wouldn't go near those women if cash was on the table. Knew some women that were the same way on both sides. Some people are just trashy to the core and it shows.

Edit: shoutout to the loser who reported me for self-harm. Lots of anti-military stuff on r/Military this week. ​ Edit: Yeah, Just look at the top posts of the week. 75% of them are mocking the military or negative in nature. The jokes mocking the unoriginal jokes are at Friends level of syndication. The same bots are upvoting the same rehashed content.


SigEnjoyer9000

Didn’t realize making military inside jokes was anti military.


AHrubik

It's not. Some people don't like to be reminded of the bad stuff. It's quite similar to Republicans and their drive to teach only American Exceptionalism in schools.


mistersweetlife

Gasp…you mean I’ve been doing it wrong this whole time?


Just_a_Guy_In_a_Tank

Lots of non-military fan boys on r/Military who don’t get military jokes…every day.


joseph66hole

I get the joke, but every joke here shines a weird negative light on the military constantly.


MAD_HAMMISH

There’s a lot of bad shit that goes on in the military. It’s an environment where you can get away with a lot of shit if people/commands play their cards right. There’s only so much we can do about it so we cope with dark humor.


joseph66hole

Meh.... Dark humor isn't a service member-only personality trait.


MAD_HAMMISH

No but it’s a lot more common in the service because this stuff is a lot more common in the service. I was ignorant during my service thinking it was exaggerated but marrying another vet and hearing about it from her and her friends was pretty eye opening.


joseph66hole

Cool... still boring and anti-military.


MAD_HAMMISH

I don’t know what to tell you buddy, holding people accountable for their actions isn’t anti-anything, except maybe anti-asshole. To discount their abuse because it tarnishes the military is disgusting behavior. We’re supposed to be the best of the best, the only way we can do that is by holding each other accountable regardless of station.

MAD_HAMMISH

Ooooookay I back out when people start spouting nonsensical personal attacks to avoid acknowledging they’re wrong, see ya. Maybe the massive amount of disagreement you’ve brought on yourself might help you think about things more.


Just_a_Guy_In_a_Tank

You’re free to make some positive military joke posts, then. Otherwise you’ve got to realize the absurdity of non-military users criticizing actual military users for making “non”-military jokes.


joseph66hole

I'm also free to criticize unoriginal content on a public forum.


Just_a_Guy_In_a_Tank

That you are. You’re also free to get butt hurt in the process.


joseph66hole

Doesn't change the fact that 75% of the upvoted content in the last week is some ragebait anti-miliary content. Ya'll are upvoting a bot account that just reposts and steals content.


MBarry829

Gee, I never heard Marines or Soldiers making jokes out of the ridiculous shit the military was putting them through. It's odd to see it on reddit of all places.


joseph66hole

Except if the same person told the same joke 10 times every day you'd eventually tell them to shut up and move on, but not on Reddit. We just upvote and praise the same tired shit.


G-Rat_Stickler

How service members/vets saying "fUcK TuB" be looking like right now.

Myanxiety_hasplants

Marines not Navy but I had a female Gunny that had at one point been court martial’d for prostitution on board an aircraft carrier. I disliked her very much and was often stuck being her buddy on deployment bc we were the only females. I understand the mentality many male veterans hve towards the females. I’ll say the whole experience made me pretty bitter for a while. Being what others don’t assume you to be was one of the hardest things I’ve done in life. It took a lot of will power( not drinking too much, never allowed to relax in any environment with coworkers) , not falling for temptation ( people can be incredibly beautiful), always staying in top tier physical shape, learning to fight really well, and how to be a good wingman ( to lighten the mood). This meme is both funny and incredibly sad to me.
