Jeopardy and the Navy Officer

Nah word is he's getting sent P-3s to join the ranks of Navs who have to have "L" and "R" markered onto their gloves so they know how to tell the difference in directions they turn...

The only person I know who did that was an ECMO and had the callsign 'Lefty' as a result.

When I was instructing in Kingsville back in the early '80's, "Easy Ed", a Marine Captain former A-4 driver came laughing into the ready room after a TAC FORM flight one day and told about his student continually calling out traffic at "Left 3 o'clock" & "Right 9 o'clock". "Easy" finally said "Dammit! Look at your watch! Which side is 3 on and which side is 9 on?" The stud responded, "I don't know sir! It's a digital watch!"
 
I don't understand why my buddy who was selected to appear on Jeopardy was told he was in limbo pending some negotiating with JAG relating to some recent battle with mids/other military appearing on TV and then other military folks appeared. Anyone else know recent folks in the same situation or are they blowing smoke to my friend?
