US Submarine Commander Sacked After Hiring TEN Hookers For Hotel Orgy

A US Navy submarine commander has been fired after he hired ten prostitutes to party in his hotel room.

Captain Travis Zettel, of the USS Bremerton, paid for the women while his submarine was on a “farewell” tour of the Philippines last March.

The commander is said to have bragged to two sailors at a hotel pool that he’d “ordered ten girls to arrive at the hotel,” according to the Kitsap Sun.

At the time the sub was docked at Subic Bay in the country.

One of the sailors then saw around ten “provocatively dressed” women outside the hotel entrance later that evening.

The commander’s boasting was then reported to Naval Criminal Investigative Service agents.

When confronted about the allegations, Zettel admitted to investigators he had paid for “female accompaniment”.

During the same tour, another sailor was seen with three “local females holding onto his arm as he was wandering around”.

A criminal probe was launched in May.

Zettel was relieved of his command in August last year after the Navy cited a loss of confidence in his command but did not go into detail for the reasons why.

He has now been reassigned to Submarine Squadron 19 at the naval base Kitsap-Bangor in Washington state but it has not been revealed what position he holds.

The other sailor spotted with the three women has not been named and did not face any disciplinary action.

Yep I am sure if he hired 10 male prostitutes the Navy would look the other way.

I think he is married.

Which would make it a problem.

OH, the horror! Is it now against Navy Regs to be seen with females?

Strange how the Active Voice ("...sailors saw...") suddenly changes to the Passive Voice ("...was reported...") at criticals junctures.

Almost like no one wants to take credit for "doing his duty" and reporting a rules-infraction, right?

“US Submarine Commander Sacked After Hiring TEN Hookers For Hotel Orgy”

I wonder if just one or two hookers would have been OK?

If he could afford ten hookers at the same time he needs to be investigated for espionage.
