Wow, didn't realize you were involved as sub hunters.  The S-3 Viking also served as a tanker, right?  

 

They also served as cargo planes, we had several US-3s in my squadron at NAS Cubi pt. Miss Piggy or just pigs we called them, we had a permanent Det in Diego Garcia and they would fly mail, cargo and pax to the carriers. They had a much longer range than our C-2A’s (COD) 3C648A75-EBF8-444C-8637-B83ABD0E4A3C.jpeg18D1B80B-07E9-4151-9E22-E43E67A757EE.jpeg

We did this in the mid 80's with a shark watch with M-14s.

Hundred sailors go down and fifty couples return to port.  By the way, they now allow female sailors in the silent navy.  Hot racking has a whole new meaning these days.

Pentagon Mandates Monkeypox Vaccine, But Only For Navy
HEALTH·Aug 20, 2022 · BabylonBee.com

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Pentagon has announced they will be making the new Monkeypox vaccine mandatory, but just for the Navy.

"After careful research into how Monkeypox is spread, we have determined the Navy to be at dire risk," said Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin. "The other branches, meh - should be fine."

The Pentagon became aware of the acute danger Monkeypox presented after the entire crew of the U.S.S. Harvey Milk tested positive last week. "That ship is something out of a nightmare, it's like a haunted house right now," said physician Dr. Ryan Walter. "We heard reports of the first case last week, then all of a sudden - boom! The whole ship goes down. Quite the medical mystery."

The new mandate comes on the heels of the Defense Department losing tens of thousands of soldiers who declined the COVID vaccine. "In a time of historic recruitment struggles, we remain committed to losing even more desperately needed servicemen," said Secretary Austin. "Any mandate we can put in place to further weaken military readiness, we are there. Let's be real though, the Navy actually needs this Monkeypox shot."

At publishing time, Navy servicemen had replied to the mandate saying it's "not funny" and that no one will obey any more orders from Secretary Austin "until he takes off that stupid face shield".

HA, the Babylon Bee is a great satire about the US military.  Thanks for sharing Don.  By the way, forget about the old school sexuality in the military.  These days, ya never know.....couples are now mixed bag, sometimes threesome.  The old fashion fantasy of ménage à trois among drunken, horny sailors no longer applies.  It could be a freak show these days.

Often regretted joining the air force; we called them "Public servants in uniform".  They considered slumming it at 3 star hotel level.
