A former British Navy man told me they do, at least in some parts of Africa, he said they tripled the prices when the American Navy turned up.

And they're still not charging enough. They need to take a page out of every Chevy dealer's book.

My man, infantry brigades in Vietnam would occasionally sponsor an entire brothel just to keep their guys clean. I've read more than a few stories about how you wouldn't hear a peep about how you spent your downtime as long as you stayed clean, didn't get into trouble, and always went to the 'correct' establishment.

We'll fight unwinnable wars but keeping track of 10000+ dingalings is too much work. Just don't get VD and we're good.

I want the record to state that men were reportedly jumping off the ship recently over how absolutely mind bogglingly bad the Iran thing has been.

22%? Financiers are going soft.

Because smart, adjusted, educated, intelligent people don't end up in the military.

That was easy.

Well, their old pal Jody is driving the Charger right now. Good guy, always does a great job looking after the family during deployments.
