Ahhh...time for a little Sergeants Time persuasion. My fear is that the unit sodomite will help fill it out for them.

Another thing about this is that it is being mailed to the troops. Guess the military is helping bail out the post office. All other surveys have been online with links sent to individual soldiers.

That happened, back in the early 1950's, aboard a Navy cruiser. I think it was the USS Worcester, a big 13,000-ton light cruiser completed and commissioned just after World War II. The story was told to me in 1970 by a chief warrant officer who went back that far; the story was current when he was junior enlisted.

Some homosexuals had caballed up in the detailers' offices at BuPers and started assigning sailors they knew were gay to the Worcester. After a while, the Worcester had a gay Mecca going on, and the homosexuals were having faux weddings in the bos'un's locker up forward. The ship's doctor was in on it, and he was controlling any incidents that got reported to him and miscounseling any horny sailors who came to him with "personal problems". Eventually someone twigged wise to the shambles and the ring was broken up by NIS and rocks and shoals assigned to the guilty parties -- quietly, as the Navy didn't need the scandal.

But the scandal did throw a shadow, as such things do, on the careers of a lot of innocent service members.

For years afterward, anyone who served in the Worcester back then, when asked "where were you in [year] _____?" would answer, vaguely, "Oh, riding some cruiser ......"
