Well something is blurry.  I figured it was either your memories or your drawing ability.   I wanted to be nice and not attack your drawing ability.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

That sounds pretty fucking stupid.  And annoying.

Well, which would you rather investigate, lesbians or druggies?

An excellent point.

It was fucking disgraceful.  I was lucky no one interviewed me for the book - I was so mad I would have done myself a disservice.

Indeed.  The Navy Incompetent Service loved investigating homosexuality of all kinds.  They didn't need anything like real evidence to get "convictions" and so justify the unjustifiable existence. That there is a hit TV show about them only added to my amusement (the one about the JAGs was even funnier, to people who know JAGs, but in a different way).

Jethro Gibbs would have run it different. By massively violating everybody rights and solving the crime in 58 minutes.
