[pbkid201]

if i enlist in the U.S. Navy for say 5 years, went through boot camp and everything..but then later after those 5 years are done and if i wanted to enlist for more time, would i have to repeat the whole process again?? Thanks

[acripple]

no, you re-enlist and you continue to do your job, whatever that may be.

[killpiezero]

no, you dont go thru boot camp again, you just stay in :)

if you have any other navy questions you can msg me

[nicolaj990]

hahahahaha failed..

[Enigman01]

I ran across this in the Reader's Digest in the early 1970's.

It was supposed to have been an actual event between an american naval ship and a lighthouse off the coast of Newfoundland.

[joans37]

Really, i just thought it was a genious swedish ads, not a "story". funny to know that.

[RetSquid]

This story (or one like it) has been going around for years. It never happened. After 20 years in the USN I can tell you it wouldn't happen. There are Rule of The Road at sea just like on land, you don't just jump in traffic and yell, a ship wouldn't do it either.

[JediBillman]

Yeah, I agree with you. I was in the Navy for only 4 years, and we went through some really busy ports. You just can't do things like this video.

[ostensuave]

Hahaha, after some time out at sea i can tell you yall never follow the "Rules of the Road"

[RetSquid]

How much time at sea do you have? A couple of hours?

[quickshot08]

It actually happened but it was a american carrier fleet talking to a canadian lighthouse

[theshipman]

That actually happened?!!!!

Where, When? Come on-spill'em!!!!!

[hildemel]

in the canadian atlantic, they were in another countries territory an in stereotypical Ami behaviour told the Coast Guard of another nation what to do

bloody violation of another nations sovereignty to me

[dougstiro]

you have to be taking the piss??

although,

Americans!!

[RowanR06]

Americans are dangerous to their allys let alone their enemies. have you  seen those, what they call, "blue on blue" situations? yea our lads now have to take cover whenever they call in for American air support. It was in the Sun! :P

[danhild2000]

It is true! But not this version...

[DaKeg3]

No, no it's not. All you have to do is check ship records and you'll see the ship mentioned in the other version was decommissioned two years before the "incident" which never actually happened.

[alkamos]

hahahahahahaha its funny cuz its the americans

[chickmansson]

Its only funny coz it could be true

[DukeLacroix]

An old,  tired joke.
