Brian Wolfe Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Well I supopose it means that there will be a lot less "practise" stearing in an evasive and erratic manner. Regards Brian
Rogi Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 Lol, I thought our Navy also had a vending machine that dispensed alcohol, did they ban these too?
Brian Wolfe Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 MP's? Do you mean Members of Parliment? They don't drink, they're all on drugs. Brian
Pylon1357 Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 MP's? Do you mean Members of Parliment? They don't drink, they're all on drugs. Brian LMAO This one has me in tears. Love this reply.
TacHel Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 The "incident" happened on a small auxiliary coastal vessel mostly manned by reservists... This will definitely NOT improve relations between the reserve and full time sailors!
Hugh Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Shades of Josephus Daniels, US Secretary of the Navy, who banned alcohol on USN ships in the early 20th century. We finally repealed Prohibition ashore, but not on board.
Chris Boonzaier Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 The Captian is dead...... Long live the Captain!!!
IrishGunner Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Looks like he still has a little life in him...
Mervyn Mitton Posted December 17, 2014 Author Posted December 17, 2014 Frank - I nearly didn't post this - but, it seemed so funny. However, as you say, the Regulars won't be happy. Mervyn
paul wood Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 To misquote Churchill without the rum they will be limited to the lash and sodomy.Paul
Paul R Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 I wish our ships would allow its return. We never brought it back in the US after Prohibition was reversed.
TacHel Posted December 17, 2014 Posted December 17, 2014 To misquote Churchill without the rum they will be limited to the lash and sodomy. Paul That's why I joined the air force...
peter monahan Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 Was it the sodomy or the lash that attracted you, Frank? Or am I misunderstanding again? Sorry, Human not my first language is.
peter monahan Posted December 23, 2014 Posted December 23, 2014 But, yes, this will be a blow to the regulars in the newly re-named, re-uniformed Royal Canadian Navy. And it comes on top of the decision several years ago to make the daily toasts politically correct! No more 'wives and sweethearts'.
