Capt. Aycock looks on as the Shiloh is brought into dry dock for scheduled maintenance. (Lt. j.g. William McGough/Navy)

3 days bread and water beats 45&45 in my book.

He’s a power tripping homo, isn’t he.

Ramona V. Flowers: This is good garlic bread.

Scott Pilgrim: Yeah, I think garlic bread would have to be my favourite all-time food. I could eat it for every meal. Or just constantly, without stopping.

Ramona V. Flowers: Then you'd get fat.

Scott Pilgrim: No, why would I get fat?

Ramona V. Flowers: Because bread makes you fat.

Scott Pilgrim: Bread makes you fat?

Calling Mr Roberts

Bread and water is disastrous on the gut. Packs you in like cement

[PROCON]

The real question here is whether it was WHITE bread and water, which would show that the Captain had racist proclivities. </sarc>

[ealgeone]

A little kick in the pants and they can’t handle this?? How’d we win any war at all?

[Snickering Hound]

Even Holly Graf didn't last that long.

[Celtic Conservative]

Notice the captain in question is no longer in command. They wisely put him in charge of a broom closet at the Naval War college.

How did he rise to Captain of a large ship? There must have been previous indicators in his career.

Bring back the lash.

Ahh, but the strawberries that’s... that’s where I had them. They laughed at me and made jokes but I proved beyond the shadow of a doubt and with... geometric logic... that a duplicate key to the wardroom icebox DID exist, and I’d have produced that key if they hadn’t of pulled the Caine out of action. I, I, I know now they were only trying to protect some fellow officers...

[AU72]

I remember doing evap watch if your caught for long sea showers.

[paddles]

I noticed no input from CAPT Aycock’s Command Master Chief.

[ctdonath2]

I don’t get what the actual issue is.
Is the captain being demeaned for frequently doling out light punishments?
or is the punishment being demeaned as just this side of “cruel and unusual”?

3 days of “think about it” with near-fasting sustenance seems a good idea for some high-spirited idiots.

I can’t speak for the Navy but I assume that UCMJ applies. As such, one can always refuse an Article 15 (Captains mast), though the consequence is to then be subject to a courts martial.

I know this because I went this route over charges of missing movement leveled against me. After reviewing the case, JAG declined to prosecute and informed my captain (O3) that I was well within my rights as an NCO and that my actions were in the best interest of the Army.

[Lurker]

I fail to see a problem here. Marine Corps Platoon Seargants could come up with much, much worse.

One of my friends was in the Army and he got put on bread and water in the brig on a ship for falling asleep at his post

[piasa]

Ending bread and water is one of a set of military justice reforms included in last year’s defense bill that are awaiting President Trump’s signature.

Wonder what other leftwing nut ideas are in there?

[T-Bird45]

At least he didn’t bend/break the taxpayers’ warship or kill sailors like several others in recent days. Some people have no sense of proportion about what to get outraged about.
