    This sounds like liberal “support the troops, hate the cheeto” wishful thinking/propaganda. Thousands of 18-20 year old, genocidal, dumb ass gross men probably flush all kinds of things all the time (bored, cum rags, ran out of toilet paper so used a shirt, had diarrhea and shit themselves, pranks and bullying etc)

      Idk, if I’d joined the navy under the impression that it’d just be a well paying secure job with a good pension that earns me society-wide respect forever and pays for my degree and all i had to do is clean the decks, do a few military demonstrations and jerk off or whatever, I’d also be mad that theyre making me actually go to war and risk my life for Netanyahu regardless of my politics

        There are plenty of shore-based jobs in the Navy. The USS Ford is based in Sasaebo which means Japanese girls. You have to specially sign up and compete for a job on a ship like this. They knew what they were getting into.

          Hell there’s even jobs for the navy in the middle of fucking nowheresville, USA, if you’re a part of naval Aviation. The u.s military is pretty fucking messy in terms of how everything’s set up and where people go. Like why are there sailors stationed in the middle of a desert? Why are there army jagoffs on random fucking islands in the Pacific? Why are marines anywhere other than on boats? Why does the air force need mechanized infantry brigades? Why does the space force not actually operate in space? Why is the coast guard going to foreign countries instead of staying at the fucking coast?

          It’s all a convoluted mess.

      One time in A-School I was stuck cleaning the same floor every day for like a week. Inside a building, lots of us kept our ball caps tucked into the back of our pants during the day. I ducked into a stall to sneak a nap, because labor for labor’s sake is bullshit. While entering, I realized I needed a poop, so dropped trou and sat down. Did my business, then when I stood up noted with a sigh I not only forgot my hat had been tucked away…but I had pooped on it.

      Can’t flush it. Not gonna fish poopie hat outta the bowl to throw it away without gloves or something. So I left to see what I could find. 10mins later we have an all hands called by the base CO.

      Apparently someone has made a terrible anti-Navy political statement. They have thrown a ball cap into a toilet and dropped a hefty dump right on top. The CO was livid. Especially once I immediately burst out laughing. Literally in tears at how stupid all of this is. He called me out and I explain exactly what happened in front of a building full of random sailors, who are all also laughing. He stomps off, I get a half-hearted beat down by my Chief, and life goes on.

      Anyway, yeah sailors are dumbasses and there’s a hundred reasons the plumbing is fucked. Wasn’t me this time I promise.
