I get chills when I remember the nightly movie freezing, and hearing "Good evening Saywas and Mawines" over the 1MC.
Our chaps had a bit of an accent...

No, no, please no more terrible poetry. I have to sit through enough on MLK Day and Juneteenth celebrations. Everyone wants to be Maya Angelou without having Maya Angelou's skill with the written word.
A plaque with that poem was gifted to me when I winged. Had no idea about the author's backstory.
He should be made to stand SDO (UI) underway in ready 5 for just one fly day during C2X. Maybe that would help him pull his head out of his ass.
Eh. There've been MLK Day, Juneteenth, AAPI Month, this month, that month command functions going on since Davy Jones was in middle school getting stuffed into his locker. No one ever forces anyone to go. And if some junior Sailor feels a little happier she got to read a bad poem, and the boat is still running and the jets are getting fixed, then who am I to get in the way of making someone's underway life suck just a little bit less?
If someone wants to run a yoga class in an empty spot of the hangar bay, that doesn't impact readiness any more than if they were running the Crossfit WOD. Actually probably less, because there'd be less chance of someone ending up in medical after hurting themselves.
That’s very un-Navy of you. Don’t you know that happiness on the boat is a zero-sum game? You only get happier by taking it away from someone else…
I guess that dipshit has never heard about warrior poets…that would require reading and stuff like some kind of pussy.
Are you sure you’re not a SWO at heart? ?That’s very un-Navy of you. Don’t you know that happiness on the boat is a zero-sum game? You only get happier by taking it away from someone else…
I realize you're joking, but good Sailors we want to keep no-shit leave the Navy because of this kind of toxic bullshit.That’s very un-Navy of you. Don’t you know that happiness on the boat is a zero-sum game? You only get happier by taking it away from someone else…
There was a beautiful poem about sleep that was popular in the JO bunkroom back in my day. Sometimes we would sing it together, particularly during GQ. ??❤️?
There's a world where I can go and tell my secrets to,
In my rack, in my rack, in my rack.
In this world I lock out all my worries and my fears,
In my rack, in my rack, in my rack,
Do my dreaming and my scheming
Lie awake and pray?
Do my crying and my sighing
Laugh at yesterday?
Now it's dark and I'm alone but I won't be afraid,
In my rack,
In my rack, in my rack, in my rack
In my rack, in my rack, in my rack
There's a world where I can go and tell my secrets to,
In my rack, in my rack, in my rack.
In this world I lock out all my worries and my fears,
In my rack, in my rack, in my rack,
Do my dreaming and my scheming
Lie awake and pray?
Do my crying and my sighing
Laugh at yesterday?
Now it's dark and I'm alone but I won't be afraid,
In my rack,
In my rack, in my rack, in my rack
In my rack, in my rack, in my rack
This is a really embarrassing interview for the ol' ball coach. Who the fuck does he think he is, and why aren't his colleagues telling him to knock it off? It's shameful...
Snap out of it. An entire community of diverse people do this thing called Naval Aviation... and do it effectively. Sleep is the last thing you should be worrying about.
