Mr-AEO - do you seriously think this took place after just a couple of pints?:
"All three were staying at Petty Officer Dryhurst's house in the local area, the court martial heard.
"They had stayed there the previous night as well," Lt Commander Weare added.
"The group arrived in Yeovil at around 1500 GMT and visited a number of public houses through the day consuming a large amount of alcohol in the process. "
Read and weep - it really was an accident waiting to happen.
