When I googled her name, her facebook page was the first hit and that was the picture.

Nick Soapdish posted:Seriously, where was the OPSO, where was the CMC, where was some random JO chatting with a friend at CSG about the hosed up situation, where was anything? CMC got NJPd along with the CO and CHENG for not reporting this. I also want to know about OPS, but random SWO JOs are so beaten down that they tend to just go with the flow no matter how completely hosed up it is because to be honest we were never sure what was abnormal and what was usual surface fuckery.

Octopode posted:Word elsewhere is that she used to hand out business cards with self photos that were described as "provocative". Of course, this was coming from bitter old SWOs, so that probably just means her picture was from the waist up or some poo poo. Given that she was playing house with the CO, it may have been more.

Playing Mad Libs with the redacted portions of the investigation report is a lot of fun, especially the medical parts. I also totally disagree with CDR Salamander. There is no way that an 11 year SWO could handle CHENG, XO, and CO duties on a deployment and come out looking good. It's just too much responsibility and work. There's also no way the CO could "honorably" take himself out of action due to medical issues when he could have had a qualified XO on board if he asked.

ManMythLegend posted:They were without an XO for closer to 3 months. Also the article is terrible and focused on the frat and general weirdness of the situation, but there were a lot of other issues. Most notably watch bills went out the window and everything became ad hoc. Also major programs and most maintenance went to poo poo as well. I could have sworn I read somewhere that in the Navy O4s are neither junior nor senior officers, unlike every other service which has O1-3 junior (company grade) and O4-6 senior (field grade). LCDRs are just stuck in the middle.

Reacon posted:C7F is a negative, then, which probably puts me on that MCM since I'd rather not be on a carrier since it's not necessarily great for advancement as a junior (I've heard). I love the Washington coastline and the cities on it, and plan on buying a car immediately, but that can wait a few years I suppose. Seriously, if I had been single I'd have jumped on a Bahrain tour and banked hella cash. Do it while you're young and unattached as long as you're smart enough to actually bank it.

Laranzu posted:Midrats on carriers were always the left over horse cock sausages from dinner. Unless they ran out, then it was beets and some bread. Man, when I was on the carrier midrats were actually decent. Leftovers from the day + microwave burritos and poo poo. The amphib was terrible, it was always nothing but corn dogs.

Fart Sandwiches posted:It's pretty aimless as a whole and makes some pretty weird statements like "and I will obey the orders of those appointed over me" like it's some bold commitment. It has absolutely nothing to do with being a sailor, either.

ManMythLegend posted:I've actually been meaning to mention how absolutely retarded it is. Honestly I had completely forgotten about because I hadn't heard it in almost 7 years, but now I have to hear it every day in class. I lay the blame squarely on MCPON Scott for this one. I avoided it for years but our new LCPO decided it should be recited at morning quarters. I still just mumble through because I'm not memorizing that crap.
