This is why the Navy cannot have nice things.
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel has ordered a close-up and comprehensive inspection of all military offices and workplaces worldwide to root out any “materials that create a degrading or offensive work environment.”
The extraordinary searches will be similar to those the Air Force conducted last year and prompted officers to scour troops’ desks and cubicles in search of photos, calendars, magazines, screen-savers, computer files and other items that might be considered degrading toward women.
The inspections will now target soldiers, sailors and Marines. They come amid heightened concern about sexual assault in the military and a new Defense Department report that suggests more than 70 troops every day experience some type of sexual assault.
To borrow a quote from comedian Rick Dukaman, " It's against the law to like beautiful women? Well, lock me up and take me to Russia".
It reminds me of the story a classmate told me once-about how some shrew fellow professional member of the team got upset with a "glamour shot" a guy kept of his wife on the desk in his office. Her complaint? It showed too much cleavage. Like that's a bad thing.
Besides it violates the Public Affairs Diktat Rule #1.
It is to weep………Guess I will have to take down my Lily Wong screensaver now.
