'D---s Everywhere' B-52 Squadron Commander Sacked
Folks, you just can't make this stuff up...
'D---s Everywhere': B-52 Squadron Known for Lewd Drawings on Deployment: Air Force The commander of a B-52 Stratofortress squadron at Minot Air Force Base, North Dakota, who was recently relieved of duty after sexually explicit and phallic drawings were found during a deployment to Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar, attempted to stop his fellow airmen from drawing "d---s everywhere," according to the command-directed investigation (CDI) into the matter. Lt. Col. Paul Goossen was removed from command of the 69th Bomb Squadron on Nov. 27 because penis drawings were discovered on a moving map displayed on the B-52's Combat Network Communication Technology (CONECT) cockpit software, as well as across bathroom stalls, vehicles, lodging facilities and even "dusty surfaces," according to the CDI, released by the 5th Bomb Wing on Friday. "Inappropriate penis drawings and insensitive cultural phrases" were even found on bombs and weapons before they were loaded into aircraft, the investigation said. In short, there was a "phenomenon [redacted] of drawing d---s everywhere," the investigation said. Military.com was first to report the contents of the CDI earlier this week. Goossen attempted to stop the rampant drawings, investigators stated. He wrote on the unit's whiteboard, "Stop drawing d---s," listing locations where phallic drawings had been found. The commander ultimately "acknowledged his failures" to stop the problem even though he stated he was unaware of the "depth and content" of the drawings within the cockpit's CONECT software until it was revealed at the end-of-deployment roll call. During the 69th's deployment to Al Udeid between September 2017 and April 2018, penis drawings were repeatedly created by members of the unit and captured as screengrabs for a compact disc montage, sources said earlier this week. The montage was played at the end of the deployment, but left behind. The CONECT system, used to display information such as pre-planned routes for sorties and target coordinates, captured the data for post-sortie debriefs. Screengrabs of the images were later used for laughs at an end-of-deployment party, the sources said. The cockpit drawings included "genitalia incorporated into various themes," the CDI said. In one instance, the software displayed Santa Claus "with a sleigh that included penis sketches." According to the CDI, the compact disc was discovered when a vehicle driven by an "other country national" was inspected as it entered the base. The disc was later turned in to officials. The suggestive material prompted an investigation. "Any actions or behavior that do not embody our values and principles are not tolerated within the Air Force," Air Force Global Strike spokesman Lt. Col. Uriah Orland said on Wednesday. The service's zero-tolerance policy "includes creating or contributing to an unhealthy, inappropriate work environment," he said in a statement. |
Like 'Killroy was here'. Once it becomes 'a good idea' it catches and unlike modern graffiti with no legend is impossible to stamp out. What it did show is the unfortunate commander did not have the charisma to stop it through his personality.

Blimey, culturally insensitive graffiti found on a bomb ? Tut Tut Tut. By all means blow the recipients to bits but whatever you do, don't offend them.

Jeez, the snowflakes are getting more sensitive these days. We used to draw C&B in odd places, even had one with added wings with 8 engines, the "C&B52", dropping bombs from the scrotum. A caveman-style version, "10,000 years BC&B", another one dressed in the old English uniform to be a C&Beefeater, one with insect wings and black-and-gold stripes, the C&Bee, and so on.
Even the VFR motto, "See and be Seen" turned into a view of a picnic on a hillside, covered in C&B, and it was titled "C&B Scene". Get a life. I bet those grumpy people at Minot AF Base would be the types who could not laugh at a good fart. |
One wonders if the new commander had any more success, and if so why/how.
"Men, staff, personnel, trans, I want you to know that this outbreak of penises, with or without scrota, must stop. If not, not only will I lose my new job, but my boss will. Please stick to laughing at good farts". |

Sounds like they need to come to Fairford and take a road trip to Cerne Abbas... https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....73dff8aa3f.jpg |
The romans were quite keen on them as well... https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....1d5bc0a094.jpg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....282794b0fd.jpg |
They used to say "Why not Mynot?". Now we know.

BigBux, there were two ways to address that last. The only sensible one would be to double up laughing.

Ratings would cut around the ship on imaginary motorcycles, revving and skidding as they went. The Captain made it known that it was his wish that the practice stopped with immediate effect. All went well until a few days later, when a rating on the bridge was sent on an errand; the unfortunate seaman kick-started his invisible bike and roared off. Turning to a senior rate the Captain ordered that the junior rate be stopped and brought back to the bridge immediately. "Aye Sir!." (kickstarts his bike and gives chase; nee nah, nee nah, nee nah............) I want to start that at work... |
Sounds like someone started a cycle, or perhaps a chain reaction..... |
Is the squadron mascot a labradoodle by any chance? Could be a get out

Moderators! The Labradoodle dog picture is caninist in the extreme and is offensive to all dogs of mixed lineage. Surely it should be removed? |
Not to mention the Pet Safety issue with the unguarded electrical device which puts Phideaux at risk.
