Apologies to all officers

[Seaspriter]

I know this apology must be intended for all Army Officers. US Marine Corps Officers would never be characterized like this. And I rather doubt any enlisted would think of their officers in either the Royal Navy or U.S. Navy this way. We were all trained (at least in the old days) in celestial navigation. Try "shooting the stars" with a sextant from a rolling bridge deck in heavy seas to get your star sights, then having to go below and take out the star tables with all the complex angles and calculations to plot a point on a chart in the middle of the North Atlantic.

Now everyone in the younger generation uses a GPS today, can't read a simple map, and have joined the ranks of the "fugawwee" tribe (as in lost tribe that was always asking "where the fugawee?") And this is the generation that's supposedly going to be leading the world a generation from now?

I always love having a little fun poked at anyone who can take a joke and laugh at themselves - we all need a little more humour.
