"Thanks, Jim"
You are welcome Debra - I wonder how your listener would have reacted to the delightful Golden Rivet legend - where young recruits were enticed to bend over by a story that one of the rivets placed low down near the ship's deck is made of pure gold; or the trick of getting a newby to hang half-in, half out of the ship's porthole by being told that the ship runs on wheels - "I cant see any Wheeeeeeeeeels!"
Or even being a youngster being invited to partake in slice of 'Navy Cake'.... - all common examples of nautical erotica.
