Luther Billis in "South Pacific".

President Biden’s woke Navy has invited an active-duty sailor who dresses in drag to join its pilot “digital ambassador” program.
A queen in every port! How exciting!
the Navy’s “tip of the spear” will include pronoun-confused, non-binary, pangender sailors – some of whom might identify as blowfish.

Snip..."Stuart Milk (Milk's Nephew) did not respond to the B.A.R.'s request for comment this week. Back in 2016, when the Navy announced it was naming the ship in honor of Milk, he had said in several news interviews that his uncle had been given an "other than honorable" discharge.
For example, the Daily Beast reported at the time that Stuart Milk had noted his uncle "was neither honorably discharged nor dishonorably discharged but 'other than honorably discharged,' meaning he was able to resign in a way that suggested there was an unofficial 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' policy in the military back then — or at least for some service members."
Stuart Milk was quoted as saying, "They gave him an opportunity to just leave, but it was really another reinforcer of the fact that he was 'less than,' but not quite a criminal."
The biography of Harvey Milk posted to the foundation's website merely says, "In 1955, he resigned at the rank of lieutenant junior grade after being officially questioned about his sexual orientation." ...Snip. More at link
His character was his fate. He ended up drugging and using young men and running a camera and photo processing operation that ignored existing porno prohibitions. Our fate is to have to deal with the current degenerates running this country.
Exactly, and only the ignorant and willfully blind refuse to see the evil staring them in the face. As for the rest of us, meaning those who do see, we are demonized by the evil as insurrectionists, racists, mentally ill, and genetically evil.
The headlines these days are straight out of Mad Magazine in the 1960s—sick humor.
Did you just conflate serving on a US Navy ship at sea to a bunch of old people and screaming kids on a luxury cruise stuffing their faces endlessly and getting drunk? Did you really just do that? Lol!
Same here. I also retired from working as a civilian for the navy after 33 years.
Where I was got crazy before covid and this trans BS........might sound a litle weird but around 2015 Navy acronyms started to overlap and have multiple meanings......that and about 32 other absolutely aggravating things made up my mind for me.
He said I wouldn’t do good on a ship......geesh, he didn’t say what KIND! :)
Navy Enlists Drag Queen to Recruit New Sailors
4000 single men leave shore on a carrier and 2000 couples return.
Sound like an agenda from the liberals.
For those that don't know, that is called the Shell Back initiation. I went through it and it was all near harmless fun and laughs, except if a Pollwog laughed they were targeted for extra treatment. My initiation had King Neptune with a big fat belly covered in mess deck lard and garbage and a cherry to eat out of his belly while he smeared your face around his belly. There was one guy next to him playing his daughter in panties and a bra (which I have hanging amongst my Navy stuff).
There was a lot more humiliating stuff than just kissing Naptune's belly. The worse part was crawling around on your hands and knees and getting swatted constantly by the current Shell Backs with their flat boards and such. The few sailors who refused the ceremony were frowned upon.
It's like an intense Fraternity initiation, mostly for morale, tradition, and to further ship wide cohesiveness. It started about 400 years back with the tall ships.
It was bad enough they did away with "Don't Ask, Don't Tell", and now the queers making out upon arrival after deployment. Worse, what is with 2 fast agile destroyers colliding with slow cumbersome freighters fairly recently and another going aground?
I may stop wearing my Navy Veteran cap with my Aviation Wings attached. This latest insanity has killed my pride in my Navy. Kudos to you for your 28 years. Did you make Master Chief? I discharge as an E-6 and had one more year where I could wear a gold crow and hash marks. Kinda a big deal for a First Class Petty Officer. Oh well, we both know what we did before the pussification and incompetence now.
Apples and oranges Ann. I'm sure he was referring to a Navy boat, as they've been called. The luxury accommodations of a cruise ship is the exact opposite of a Navy boat. But then, with all this queer and PC in the Navy nowadays, who knows?
BTW, I've always enjoyed your replies, but you are wrong on this one.
Wogs like you are not suppossed to know that.
Well in my day on a Gator ship that transported 2000 Marines, it was no problem. The Marines would tell us sailors, "Thanks for being our seagoing bellhops." We in turn would say, "Well, it's nice to have our own little army." No hard feelings and no fights about the mutual teasing.
Thank you for your service!
I am a retired 0-6 Naval Aviator.
I enlisted in March, 1963 and was commissioned in Sep. 1964. I Retired in 1991.
I still proudly wear my Navy shirts and ballcaps. Not ready to give up just yet!
WE KNOW, THEY KNOW, AND THEY KNOW WE KNOW THAT THEY ARE INSANE!
Over time, the Ship of State will right itself - if we are willing to help it!
I will support and defend the Navy, and will do my best to see to it that the public knows this “woke” crap is just a passing INSANE fancy.
I was having a bad day and then read about this tranny as a spokesman for the Navy. Of course, I’ll still wear my cap and shirts. Sounds like you had an interesting career. Would you mind telling me what aircraft you flew? Also, I think we met years back at a FR event or maybe CPAC.

If a person needed a good reason NOT to enlist, this would seem to be one of them.
I was in the service for 4 years, but not in the Navy. As I recall, stuff like “drag queens” was something not specifically mentioned in my manual, but it certainly bordered on cause for a court martial & probably a BCD or dishonorable discharge. Don’t we have any real leaders in the military anymore?....even if we don’t have a real CIC.
The Navy has a specific tradition I can’t tell you about. It is all in fun.
Cruise liners.
That’s cute.
Try shrimping and commercial fishing with a bunch of drunk fishermen and having to pilot the boats in shifts when the autopilot is busted, or hang your trawl nets on a sunk boat or an underwater rock face and almost capsize, while in a badass storm. On call 24 hours a day due to frequent accidents and emergencies that can kill us all. I was never in the navy, but still did my share of commercial fishing, so I understand how sailors are.
While you’re pampered and catered to on a cruise liner, we’re facing death day after day, like having to climb out on the boom to unhang a cable back onto the pulley for the trawl door after you just dumped trash fish, which means the sea around the boat is bubbling with sharks with nothing under you but death if you slip.
Cruise. Gimme a break.
