Sailor gets 10 months for illegal taping of female officers

MAYPORT NAVAL STATION, Fla. – A submarine sailor pleaded guilty Monday to illegally videotaping female officers in the vessel's shower area and was sentenced to 10 months in a Navy brig.

Petty Officer 2nd Class Ryan Secrest also received a bad conduct discharge and a reduction in rank.

Secrest, a missile technician, is among seven sailors who served aboard the USS Wyoming out of Kings Bay Naval Submarine Base who are charged in the case. The video scandal has disrupted the Navy's integration of women into its submarine force.

Navy prosecutors say the men waited until the officers were done working out in the ship's gym, and then secretly made recordings of them in the shower area.

The men then traded the videos "like Pokemon" cards for items like energy drinks, prosecutors said.

From what I understand the “real” Ryan Secrest wouldn’t mind 10 months in the brig. If you know what I’m sayin’.

Well Sailor, there’s only one thing for you to do.

Come out of the closet and demand you be sentenced to the women’s prison.

So, have any of the sailors that have seen the videos mentioned whether they were worth a damn or not? Never got the feeling any women that went into the navy were all that hot, especially ones that would want to be stuck in a metal tube for months. Read about women crewed surface ships that were notorious lesbian fiefdoms.

Placing men & women in small cramped quarters together can only enhance our military preparedness right?

“Petty Officer 2nd Class Ryan Secrest”

Being the host of a blockbuster tv show, you would think Ryan wouldn’t have to resort to this.

And once more, the nature of man does not respond to the diktats of the Soviet State.

Just like every other service....there are always exceptions....they usually end up driving the general/admiral around town.

Given the nature of what the military has become under ø, decency is actually expected?

If the taping were done of male sailors by a gay sailor would there even be any uproar?
