SFC William H. - Actually it was Black Grouse Scotch. I have seen him three times (twice as a second show) and believe me the dude was imbibing some adult beverages. The Black Grouse is a very good Scotch

Black Grouse : The Whisky Exchange
A timely innovation from Famous Grouse - this blend is based on peated Islay malts, and promises 'reassuring smoothness with aromatic, peaty flavours'.

LTC Orlando Illi - Well, that answered that! I'll bet his second shows were far better than the first!

Oh, I don't think so. This seems like a minor violation for Navy guys. Maybe a reprimand, but I am not an officer or Navy.

I have worked with Royal Navy in the past, and they have less patience for these kinds of things then we do here. They are gone...

Thanks for making us aware LTC (Join to see) that three Royal Navy sailors were arrested in Sicily 'after attacking a kebab shop boss and trying to steal his takings by raiding the till.
None of the Royal Navy officers assed to the HMS Echo in the Mediterranean [aged 27, 25, and 21] were charged after their arrests in Palermo, on the island of Sicily.
The Royal Navy has said it is aware of the allegation, and said the men were released without charge
The men, officers on HMS Echo in the Mediterranean, were on shore leave when it happened, The Sun reports.
A friend of the owner said: 'The sailors went mad and started attacking him.'
He said the row broke out after one of the group made sexist comments which the kebab shop owner, who is Bengali, understood.
The friend continued: 'He told him not to say what he did and then he went for him with his friends joining in. One of them even tried to take the till but he failed.'
A Ministry of Defence spokesman told The Sun: 'We are aware of an alleged incident. All service personnel were released by local police without charge.'
To be honest, I expect the British MOD investigation will clear theses officers of charges after the CCTV evidence is viewed.

It makes me wonder since the only people saying they did it are the kabob shop owner and his friends. Let's see the recordings or some testimony by some other customers who were there. They weren't charged by the civlian cops. We need more information before passing judgement.
