Four to five years ago, a racy video was discovered on board the USS Enterprise, which is an aircraft carrier. When the video was found, the U.S. Navy ordered an investigation to take place. Finally, they are able to bring their findings to the public. Captain Owen Honors was in charge of making the video. They are deciding whether or not he will be punished for his actions, but one thing is probable: he won't be in charge for the next deployment of the USS Enterprise. Apparently while on deployment, slightly dirty videos are shown to the crew to "boost morale," but this video crossed the line. Capt. Honors claimed it boosted morale, but it actually offended most of the sailors on board.
I think this is disgusting. Can't people control themselves while their deployed for 6 months at a time? They shouldn't be sending this image to the public. That's not what the Navy is supposed to be about. They're supposed to protect the country, not have crude fun with their buddies on a boat. Owen Honors is an adult, he should have known what was appropriate and what wasn't, and he should have taken charge and never made a video that bad. Personally I believe he should be punished. If people are saying it crossed the line, then it obviously crossed the line.
