NOTICE:

As one of Free Republic's few remaining salty old sailors I am compelled to remind any and all FRiends on this august forum to be, in your posts, duly sensitive to the needs, rights, and desires however landlubberly or otherwise disturbing of trans, cis, or other-gendered members of the United States Navy, pregnant or otherwise, who may or may not have been emotionally affected and thereby had their days ruined in full or in part by news of this collision at sea.

Key words: "duly sensitive"

Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)

As another salty old sailor, I say women and sodomites have no place on a ship.
