Damn I'm good. I remember stuff from 30 years ago better than yesterday sometimes.

 

Of course, we never really "stood-down", and they won't either. I mean, they made us take like a half a day of training so we would be behind on our office-work, I guess, and maybe a couple other hour presentations, but other duties were not interfered with beyond annoyance.

Navy's self-analysis meant to fight sexual harassment

Gilbert A. Lewthwaite

THE BALTIMORE SUN

 

WASHINGTON – One day last fall, the Navy's top admiral read a report of a drunken petty officer who had groped a female sailor on a commercial flight while other sailors looked on and did nothing.

 

The next day, the admiral, Jeremy M. Boorda, ordered all 430,000 men and women under his command to take time off to ponder ways to aid order and discipline.

 

For a Navy increasingly sensitive to sexual harassment, 1995 has been another trying year.

 

This year's stand-down was the second time in three years that the Navy has ordered such self-analysis. The first came after the 1991 Tailhook convention, at which dozens of women were sexually assaulted or harassed by Navy aviators.

 

The focus on harassment has encouraged an explosion of complaints.

 

This year, two admirals have been forced to retire after sex-related indiscretions, and the head of the Navy equal opportunity office faced sex harassment charges, of which he was cleared but which left his future promotion in question.

 

The Navy points to figures that suggest, paradoxically, that harassment is actually declining as the service cracks down on violators and makes it easier for victims to file complaints.
