Ian got out in May, and he’s back in school. He may go back as trainer after that if conditions improve. When he got out he said it was getting pretty bad, and morale was awful.

He'd be wise to wait about three years. One election can turn things around. It was bad when I was in under Carter but nothing near this extent. Even Cater's SEC Navy wised up toward the end somewhat. But what's being allowed today is going to collapse the armed forces.

There's an old saying If you want men to act like sailors then treat them as such. The expected conduct and standards of my time in were high. Yet they would get you Court Martialed today over Political Correctness Issues. Our hazing {iniation into engineering} would likely get you hard time now. But sleeping with another guy will get nothing? We had the CAUGHT gays off the ship within hours or in the Brig for their own safety until fly off could be arranged. No branch of the armed forces can operate under the new regulations.
