Semper Fi.

This is coolbert:

From WIZARD through Harry at Sharkhunters several items of interest:

1. "SEMPER FIDELIS Maybe Should be Semper Paratus USMC planes in trouble"

11 April.

"Quarter of US Marine Aircraft Idle Due to Lack of Spare Parts"

"Assistant Deputy Commandant for Aviation and Sustainment William Taylor said that almost a quarter of the aircraft belonging to the US Marine Corps are grounded because spare parts for them are not immediately available."

YOU CAN PAY ME NOW OR YOU CAN PAY ME LATER! EVENTUALLY THE CHICKENS COME HOME TO ROOST!

2. "USS OHIO XO FIRED - - Lt. Commander Joseph Ferrari relieved; NCI investigation."

11 April .

"The second in command aboard the guided missile submarine Ohio was fired on April 3 because of a 'loss of confidence in his personal judgment and ability to lead.'"

. . . .

"the investigation . . . may stem from allegations that Ferrari made unwanted advances toward a female junior officer."

MIXED GENDER CREWS ON SUBMARINES JUST DOES NOT WORK?
