Royal Navy Dismisses Seven sailors and Two officers for Drugs and Sex on board Warships.

The Royal Navy is a shadow of the great naval force that ruled the world for 300 years. At that time the adage "The sun never sets on the British empire" was true . After World War II the emaciated, United Kingdom is keeping a minimum deterrent, which is difficult to finance. This force is now beset by new problems of drug abuse and indiscriminate sexual liaisons between the sexes on board the warships, seriously undermining the security of the United Kingdom.

The Stars and Stripes News Paper has reported that when the nuclear-powered submarine HMS Vigilant docked in the US to replenish its stock of Trident nuclear missiles, the crew held rave parties at which drugs flowed freely. A mandatory drug test revealed that nine sailors were positive and these nine have been dismissed. Considering that the submarine has a complement of 11 officers and 121 sailors, dismissing 9 sailors is perhaps the tip of the iceberg. It is inconceivable that only 9 sailors took part in the 'rave parties'.

This was not all and two officers a Commander and Lieutenant Commander have been removed from command for bedding two junior female officers while the warship was on the high seas. These sexual liaisons seriously undermined the discipline and efficacy of the crew and the submarine. In turn, the defense of the UK was in jeopardy. Both the officers have been removed from command though no action is taken against the female crew who slept with the officers. The Defence Minister was seriously perturbed at this moral turpitude. He has ordered a detailed investigation into the state of affairs aboard all warships
