Capt Robert Tarrant walks to the hearing with his wife Tracy

You Brute,

You Brute,

You Viscious Brute!

[Hypervigilant]

Glad these pu$$ies aren't in our military.

[vrwc0915]

The royal navy has come full circle

[Moose4]

And this is the same Royal Navy that used to routinely abuse the daylights out of every midshipman they had? Hmm.

Oh, please.

There's no crying in submarining!

[wingnutx]

ah, bubbleheads :)

[rottndog]

Bloody Mollycoddler!

[Lurker]

I'm sorry, but any Officer worth his salt knows this is exactly the wrong way to motivate the troops. There's nothing wrong with a good old fashioned dressing down, but to go beyond that is conduct unbecoming.

Abusing the troops under your command physically or mentally can and should get the CO relieved post haste.

[LibFreeOrDie]

Ah, for the grand old days of 50 lashes and a keelhauling!

[Aussiebabe]

Where is Captain Bligh when we need him?

[bybybill]

Never spent any time with a USMC NCO, I see.

[krb]

She's thinking..."but...but I like it when he does that!"

[Strategerist]

And this is the same Royal Navy that used to routinely abuse the daylights out of every midshipman they had?

That's a myth.

[WorkingClassFilth]

These guys should be happy for a little shouting. They could have gotten the rum, lash and sodomy Royal Navy.

[RTINSC]

Conduct unbecoming of an officer, especially a naval Captain.

[rottndog]

Abusing the troops under your command physically or mentally can and should get the CO relieved post haste.

I remember a boat in Pearl Harbor a few years ago where the CO was relived for bad crew morale.

And it is counterproductive - disloyal troops don't win wars.
