The thing that you seem to be conveniently ommiting in your anticedote is that this is not between two squadron mates on equal footing. This is not 'locker room banter'. This is between a subordinate and his commanding officer. As Lance has said repeatedly, the superior in the relationship has the burden and responsibility of decorum. His behavior clearly worked contrary to unit cohesion.
