they could not draft my horny ass in the navy. bc they’d tell me “we’re bringing you to the submarine” and i would be so displeased when they throw me in a metal ocean tube. instead of taking me to a beautiful submissive man in a sailors uniform.
Portrait of a ship sign of the French navy. in 'Histoire générale de la marine' by Van Tenac
Something tells me this is more mid-century, but man can the French design a uniform. Frick the haters, even the red and blue uniforms of early WW1 was stylish.
Cutting Medicare & Libraries but we're rebuilding the NAVY?
..."The Congressional Budget Office analyzes the Navy’s 2025 plan and estimates its costs. Overall, the Navy wants to build a larger fleet whose firepower is distributed among more ships than it is today.
Cost. The Navy’s 2025 plan would cost 46 percent more annually in real terms...than the average amount appropriated over the past 5 years.
[The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office] estimates that total shipbuilding costs would average $40 billion (in 2024 dollars) over the next 30 years, which is about 17 percent more than the Navy estimates. ...
Including the costs of operating and maintaining those ships, buying new aircraft and weapons, and funding the Marine Corps, the Navy’s total budget would need to increase from $255 billion today to $340 billion (in 2024 dollars) in 2054 to implement the 2025 plan.
Fleet Size. The number of battle force ships would increase from 295 today to 390 in 2054...
Purchasing Plan. The Navy would purchase a total of 364 new combat ships and combat logistics and support ships..."

The Navy: ahh yes our rising star Thomas Iceman Kazansky, the COMPACFLT, an admiral, cool and calculating under pressure, serious and dependable. Just the man the military needs.
Slider: nooo no no no, he's a very stupid homosexual who loses IQ points just thinking about that feral little gremlin he calls a husband and his ass!!! He snapped his fucking teeth at him?!?!? Who does that?!?!? He pushed him up against a bar the first time they met and practically begged to fuck him there and then. And woe betide the poor hapless fucker who tried to interrupt his maverick teasing time....
