...And you thought McHale’s Navy was canceled back in 1966.
| Quote: | Later, Dorsey reflected on the day`s events. “Under no circumstances do I consider myself trigger-happy,” he said.
“If called upon to do so, I've been trained to react decisively and smartly. In this most unfortunate mishap, I believe that I indeed reacted decisively and, at the time, with the information I had received and interpreted, believed I was acting smartly.
“If flying tomorrow, I`d have a heck of a lot more things I`d do differently.”
But Dorsey won`t get that chance. The Navy ruled that he will be allowed to keep his pilot wings, but he never again will be allowed to fly a Navy aircraft. |

Next thing you know, the Army will start making men wear "pregnancy simulator gear" when they take PT so they can be more
"sensitive" to the discomfort pregnant women endure ....
oh, wait, they already did!!!
What's next? Make them put their crotches in a vise and clamp it down to show them how it feels to have a mammogram?
...meanwhile, our enemies are gearing up for WAR!
...I believe it was the Iron Duke (Wellington) who said of his soldiers at Waterloo:
“I don’t know if they frighten the enemy, but they scare the Hell out of me.”
...meanwhile, back at the ranch...
F-35B Marine Corps major selected as test pilot of the year
