I mean lashing back in the extreme like in re-activate her and then court martial her. Of course perhaps that is an appropriate response if the stories are true. I think there will be a lot of pressure for this to be quite and swept away. It kind of depends on what the press does with this IMO. I'm thinking the liberal press which has long thought these joy cruises are the way the military should be is not going to want to watch her hoist herself on her own petard and may just avoid this story.

I was never a fan of young men and women being cooped up together away from their spouses for long periods of time. On a submarine we didn't have to worry about that though there were movement's afloat to make them co-ed also. Couldn't work though and they finally and thankfully realized that. 119 men/women in the North Atlantic on a fast attack for 100 days underway. Hot bunking because of shortages of bunks, etc. Can't work. I don't think it works much better system wide but that is just an opinion.
