Footage of the crew showed sailors dancing and laughing, and a source told the BBC some were drinking alcohol.
Definitely more BBQ than Rave.
Royal Navy nuclear submarine captain rapped for letting crew throw shoreside BBQ party
And to think that rum was once a part of the standard Royal Navy ration.
Itās as if the BBC has never heard of āsailorsā before
There are only two things that qualify something to be called a āraveā and one of them is loud dance music into the wee hours of the morning. Pretty sure nobody is alleging the other thing, though if it were to replace rum in that old clichĆ©ā¦
OK I havenāt seen that movie but I have been on that submarine a few times.
Trust me, thatās the only amusing part. The rest is a cringe fest.
Yeah, thatās what I heard. The audio tour of the sub is kind of fun though.
Off topic, but sailor-related:
Has anybody an idea how to lure @Papasan back to the BBS?
They could serve as a study group. You canāt be more social distanced than in a submarine. Nobody got it? Win for social distancing!
CAPTAIN: Lieutenant ā sound the alarm!
LIEUTENANT, PRESSING PLAY: Oooooooooooohh yeah! Yeah! All right!
So itās not just me, then? We got weeklong time outs around the same time and I havenāt seen anything from them since. Iām missing @Papasan RIGHT NOW!
