The four horsemen of the apocalypse that is. As if having Donald Trump on a presidential ballot were not proof enough the Anti-Christ is alive and walking among us, now comes a day when I actually agree with a Republican Congressman from Mississippi. Repent! The hour of judgment is at hand!

An idea that is long overdue.
If you have been a long time reader here, you will know that one of my pet peeves is that the Navy has more flag officers than it has ships. A few years ago I picked a fight with one of the Naval Institute’s “preferred customers” on this very subject. Well, it took

A CO has been fired through what appears to be, assassination by IG. YOKOSUKA NAVAL BASE, Japan — Yokosuka base commanding officer Capt. David Glenister has been relieved of duty, Navy officials in Japan said Thursday. Rear. Adm. Matthew Carter, head of Navy Region Japan, relieved Glenister Wednesday afternoon after losing

I, like many people, subscribe to Navy Times. And, if you have been a follower of this blog for some time, you that I very upset with some of the news about the Navy, my Navy, that it reports. And in the latest edition to arrive in my mailbox, the news paper did

It is January and I am traveling again. Not without some trepidation, since my last voyage to points beyond put me in the hospital. But this trip is back to the whining States of America, so I am hoping O.D.’ing on Krystal burgers will be safe. ( I love Krystal

This appeared at Phib’s place a week ago. It is so good and so much a commentary on what is wrong with my once beloved Navy, I had to post it here in its entirety. It’s worth a read-especially where it calls out the survivors of the Uncle Vern’s purges during the last

This will be my second and hopefully, the last post on the abomination that is the Harry Harris sponsored assrape investigation into the Blue Angels “command climate”. Also known as its more common name, assassination by IG. There have been wonderful comments made that, “since the events were substantiated as occurring”, all objections to

Remember in the run-up after the Gulf War, when the first big push for dropping the combat exclusion laws started and women said they “just wanted to be treated like the men”. It seems someone did not get the memo: Allegations that “sexually explicit humor” and the display of “pornographic images” were

In Star Trek’s alternate universe, people moved up in the Terran Empire by assassination. Over here in this universe, it appears to be happening via the vehicle of the IG complaint: News about the Navy’s investigation of former Blue Angels lead pilot Capt. Greg McWherter over alleged misconduct when he commanded
