You're right Takeda, in a western liberal democracy the military is answerable to the people and they do have the right to be outraged.
But as I said before there is a different culture in the military. Pity people can't understand that. This really is not unusual humour in any service.From operating along side numerous other nations and various services including USAF and USN I have seen first hand that it is much the same world wide.
I would be interested to hear what other serving and ex military think about this.
Food for thought,
The Three Detatchment Rules
1: No cameras
2: No drinking and dialing
3: Always have the party in someone else's room.
