When do we get a general that murders someone? Pretty soon drinking and adultery will be as old as GWOT...

Yes...because you have a history of 'relaxing' when people poke fun at FA's too right?
Always have, always will.
Did I say that what you said wasn't accurate or did I point out an additional detail?

Sounds like in this case they're private citizens, they can sleep with who they want...that's between them, their conscious, and any significant others they may or may not have.

Senior officers have an obligation to maintain decorum and not embarrass the service.

That's pretty over the top. I'm not even sure this is anything new, it may just be business as usual. WARRIORS, who go in harms way tend to be a hard-working, hard-playing lot. Maybe social media is just making people's private fun public.

Or maybe we do have a problem in the selection process, not sure which it is.
