Does anyone else think it's a disgrace that we have a ship named John McCain?

It least it’s a ship whose purpose is to shoot other planes.

all that pent up anger from not being able to find a husband (or wife?) will be taken out on those sailors

So this moron is shooting a rifle with the optic backwards and he gets fired and replaced by a tranny?
Holy shite.
Holy shite.

That’s an officer who is an old man in the navy, he was given that rifle from the arms room or some dumb arse officer that was fired and probably needed direct supervision. I bet he was set up. He must be hated.

That’s a Trijicon VCOG. Anyone with half a fricking brain should have known it was on backwards. When he looked through the optic it would have been obvious. His shouldering of the M4 is terrible as well. High placement of the buttock on the shoulder is textbook amateur hour.

The ship is named for all three John S. McCains, the two admirals and the Naval aviator, prisoner of war/politician. The ship was the United States Naval vessel that accidentally collided with a merchant vessel in the Pacific 7 years ago (I think near Indonesia or the Philippines). Ten crewmen were killed and the C.O. and X.O. were removed. At some point in the last couple of years, Yaste served as X.O. of the ship and became C.O. about a year ago.

LOL he got fragged. That's hilarious if true. Those sailors will be telling that story for the rest of their lives.

To be fair he probably isn’t looking through the scope, just shooting off into the water for a photo.
Still laughable though.

"Is that a tranny?" Was my first thought as well

I am not a gun expert at all and I can tell the scope is backwards. How was the picture taken without he or the cameraman realizing the scope was on backwards?
Posted on 8/31/24 at 8:31 pm to blueridgeTiger
This happens all the time... like every month

I was just wondering what the kid from Ladybug's has been up to.
