Shouldn't this be in the humor section?
There is no way that the once mighty Royal Navy would be this sick and stupid. This story just can't be real.

Wish it were just humor, but it appears that Her Majesty's Royal Navy is "looking for a few divine flamers who like water sports".

I could only imagine (cringe) how Cap'n Bligh, Fletcher Christian, and the rest of the crew might react if there were
those sailors aboard....

They tried drilling "access holes" in submarines but it did not work too well.
Perhaps they should just leave a trail of meth pills or extacy to the recruiting offices.
(sarcasm off)
What happened to the "oops overboard" solution when they would come out?

British matelots call the Royal Navy "The Andrew", originally it comes from a very zealous Press Gang officer of the name of Andrew Miller, of whom it was commonly said that he pressed so many men into the Navy that it was practically his own property.
Now it can be said it is slang for Andrew Sullivan.

I always thought it was tradition!
There was a standing joke about the submarine crews in Pearl Harbor – 150 men go down. 75 couples return. This was usually claimed immediately after some Bubble Head made the crack about there being only two types of ships – targets and submarines.
To Navy types – I’m glad you all have a sense of humor.
