"The instruction also acknowledges hazing has been a part of Navy ceremonies, initiations and rites of passage in the past, but that it "is contrary to our core values of honor, courage and commitment.""Yeah.....and there are always those who decide to take such "initiations" WAAAAAAY too far, then call the victims "pu**ies" if they complain. I have no stomach for such.

How did Sir Winston Churchill define the mainstays of the Naval discipline? "Rum, lash and sodomy"?

Yeah.....and there are always those who decide to take such "initiations" WAAAAAAY too far... Anything that goes on for seven months can hardly be considered any sort of "initiation". Sure, 'the new guy' is likely to catch some good-natured grief for his first day, possibly two, but at that point it ends.

Royal Navy: "Rum, lash and sodomy"?Well, as far as this being a suggestion, the U.S. Navy doesn't allow rum, the lash is not permitted by the UCMJ, and as for the latter, I'm sure you won't tell if they don't tell...

Now, see for yourself: the rum rations of the offenders would be distributed to the rest of the crew, but in a way of compensation they would get the double doses of the rest.

Anybody know what was involved here...Simple Crow tacking or something really bad? It's gotta be physical with the assualt charge.

I'm sure glad I'm retired. I would probably have been arrested many times for hazing. Sub Qualification, Crossing the Equator. Crossing the Equator at the Meridian, Chief Petty Officer. Dang. I guess I had all the good times before PC and now we know we were so bad.

The report never details what the "perps" actually did.
Wonder why?
Cuz if they wrote any of it down, it would sound completely stupid and inane and unworthy of administrative consideration. There would be no cases of physical striking, or kicking, or whatever.
Just "hurt feelings" and gay $hit like that.

I managed to endure getting my crow and dolphins tacked-on, as well as initiation, but rumors are that there was MUCH more involved here. I refer you to The Stupid Shall Be Punished, especially the comments.
With what we know so far, I'm not ready to call this political correctness run amok or a keelhaulable offense. I want more information.
