Sorry to hear about your sons troubles. I hope he doesn't think these few idiots he knows are what represent the United States Navy. When I served in the Navy during the 70's & 80's we had our share of trouble makers. I had the tar whipped out of me a few times by some boys from Alabama, just because I was a "damn Yankee". I got even later when I became a Petty Officer and stood Shore Patrol duty and got to help drag those same drunk redneck pukes from the off-limit bars back to the Brigg. I have also met some of the best friends of my life in the Navy, All conservative. So tell him to hang in there. I don't think the navy has changed that much since I've been in, except now they allow women on board and the jets are prettier.

Thanks for the nice note, but I think you wanted to send it to the original poster. I was just responding to her. Take care, and thanks for your years of service.
