Also, a check of Google Earth shows only the Blue Angels' shield painted on the hangar roof (not the other explicit paintings as alleged in the article).
I don’t consider “pin-ups” to be porn, but discrete displays of fantasy and the imagination.
It was alright to fantasize about the opposite sex and what every “man” was fighting for during WWII, so why is it suddenly pornographic and sexist now.
Pin-ups were around when I was a kid. Check out Bettie Page and Vargus Art. In the late sixties, pornography replaced pin-ups with raw sex, nothing left to the imagination. Airbrushed pictures of ugly women with pubic hair all over the place.
Heck, some still complain about Tinkerbell as being sexist and pornographic. How about Barbara Eden as Jeannie. Pretty tame as compared to what is found on the Internet today.
Everybody needs to lighten up. It’s pornography that leaves nothing to the imagination, not fantasy.
Oh, dear - Navy guys keeping pictures of naked girls!
What’s next, bears dumping in the woods?
This is bull sh*t, plain and simple.
