In response to your post.

One incident of this type is one too many.

No Kidding, you have the magic wand that will prevent this from happening in the military? If you do I'm sure the civilian sector would like to know also since…

Again, I simply blame their commanders for lacking the ability to establish adequate control over the behavior of these men. As one poster put it earlier, "it wont be long before another incident of this nature makes its way into the Japanese press".

The attitudes toward the host nation on full display here is from civilians that live here in Japan, not military.

I'll address this comment directly to clarify the difference.

You going to try to tell me that no sailors on the GW feel the Japanese are beneath them?

Going to be interesting, also hope that posters here could also tell me what…

W.O.W.

I'm watching Obama's victory speech now - 29 mins and he barely looks at his cue once.

No offense, but can someone here actually tell me what Obama actually brings to the table to be President?

Robert De Niro ... as Max Cady, Cape Fear 1991
