    Lad culture is a disease that should have been wiped out 30 (more than, but 30 at the least) years ago. Have fun, get drunk, be young and carefree... BUT if that involves harassing others, exposing yourself, being a general nuisance, GFY.

      Still doesn’t make it acceptable to wave your bollocks about at a party.

      Never heard of that to be combat related. I would even argue that those people are more closed up.

    I see the problem now with the royal family’s insistance to substitute military service for a real world education.

  As a Scot, it amuses me no end that the thumbnail has a sign saying “Baws Come Down” 😂

  "Aldridge, 39, exposed himself immediately after overhearing the two women complain servicemen had previously flashed at them.

  Capt Rebecca Slee, prosecuting, said: “They had talked about previous incidents of exposure, and said they hoped nothing like that would happen tonight.

  “Flt Lt Aldridge was at the bar and overheard the conversation. He then exposed his testicles and put them on the bar.”

    What kind of Stretch-Armstrong-ass motherfucker do you have to be in order to be able to put just your balls on the bar?

  You really would think that would go without saying wouldn't you, but no, grown adults have to actually be told by a judge that it is wrong and not 'bants' to get your bollocks out in public. When you've just heard some bar staff saying 'i hope no one gets their bollocks out tonight'.

  FFS.

  This line momentarily short-circuited my brain

  England, Britain’s only female military judge

  Her name is England, but it’s written like England is a lesser-known village in Britain.

  This is the best summary I could come up with:

  ---

  A military judge has said RAF officers must stop exposing themselves to female colleagues, describing such behaviour as arrogant, juvenile, immature and not funny.

  Assistant judge advocate general Jane England spoke as she dismissed an officer for exposing himself to two civilian female bar staff as they worked at a military party.

  Flt Lt Richard Aldridge, who had served in Iraq and Syria, was found guilty at a court martial of placing his testicles on a bar during a summer ball.

  England, Britain’s only female military judge, said: “This is not the first case involving a male Royal Air Force officer at the mess.

  During his trial at Bulford in Wiltshire, the military court heard the incident happened during an officers’ mess event Aldridge helped organise at MoD Boscombe Down, near Amesbury.

  At the sentencing hearing, prosecutor Maj James Eveleigh said the services have a “zero tolerance approach to sexual offences and inappropriate behaviour”.
