Swedish Navy and the ‘Flag of the Flying Penis’
p2pnet view Off Topic:- Two Swedish NCOs are in trouble for painting a flying penis on a white flag on their boat during a naval exercise in the Stockholm archipelago.
The pair were leading an exercise “which involved national service recruits”, says The Local, going on:
“During the exercise the pair were clad in only blazers and underwear.”
The sergeants were docked three days pay each for “unsafe, inappropriate and immature” behaviour, says the story, adding the Armed Forces Disciplinary Board “further argued that the sergeants’ skimpy attire of blazer and boxer shorts was to be considered a breach of security and found that they ‘had not adapted their clothing to existing water and temperature conditions’.”
The two have three weeks to appeal the ruling.
