Sea Story (now this ain't no -------)
While I was typing my sea story the thread got poofed. Well, here's my sea story anyway:
When I was on the Submarine Tender we had an Old Chief who was a hard core alcoholic. One day he had the Inport OOD watch and he told his Petty Officer of the Watch to watch the Quarterdeck while he did a tour of the weather decks. He ziggied around the corner to the starboard side fan room where he kept one of his bottles and opened the door. He caught two guys in the act. He didn't say a word, slammed the door and ziggied back to the Quarterdeck.
Somehow the XO got wind of what had happened (I don't know how he found out). He sent for the Chief to come and explain it to him. He wanted to know why the Chief didn't report it. Of course the Chief didn't want undue interest in the fan room. He came up with some kind of cock and bull song and dance, and the XO bought it.
The XO asked the Chief if he were in the XO's position, what would he do. The Old Chief said "Well, XO, if it was me I'd just tell 'em if they're going to do that $#!+ during working hours they just going to have to knock it off altogether."

Well as all of us know, a fairy tale starts of with "Once upon a time" and a sea staoy starts with "this is a no $izzler" 0 -

Winston Churchill said that the tradition of the Royal Navy was "rum, sodomy, and the lash."
Did you ever see anyone get the lash?0 -
Naw, I was just in the U. S. Navy. I never was into that S & M stuff anyway. [:D] 0 -
I've always wondered why they sell KY Jelly in every PX I've ever been in...
Edit: ...even at Basic Training, the PXs had KY...0 -
It makes me wonder if those two guys were so inclined before they got into the Navy [;)]. 0 -

In today's modern Navy you can't ask and they can't tell. However, if I've learned anything on GunBroker it's that it's just as natural for humans as it is for Polar Bears.
I don't really think the Navy can change your stance on orientation or your orientation on stance, but I did know a Senior Chief Boatswain's Mate who turned down advancement to Master Chief Boatswain's Mate and put in his retirement letter. When the XO asked him what his real reason was, he told him when he came into the Navy, homosexual activity would get you six, six and a kick. Now it is optional. He wanted to retire before it was mandatory.0
