Drunk, out of control, revealing an understanding about women abandoned in the days of Fred Flintstone.
How many men practice the 'woman knowledge' of 'liquor and love.' Wasn't there a trial recently whereby older teens made the mistake of taking advantage of a female peer and then boasting about it.
Inebriation, either alcohol or substances of one kind or another, that is a male paradigm that should work? This is not a single incident of poor judgement, it is a cultural paradigm that exists with permission by society.

A lieutenant colonel (click here) who ran the Air Force's Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Office was arrested and charged with sexual battery over the weekend in a D.C. suburb.
In a statement Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel was said to have expressed "outrage and disgust" over the arrest, which comes as the Pentagon prepares to release a report Tuesday showing the number of sexual assaults in the military increased in 2012.

...Meanwhile in Congress, legislators are drawing up bills that would take the decision for prosecuting these cases out of the hands of commanding officers and allow military lawyers to decide -- a move that military leaders say would hurt their ability to maintain order and discipline. Legislators, however, say that under the current system victims decline to step forward out of concern that their complaints will not be taken seriously.
Twice in recent months, three-star Air Force generals have come under fire for throwing out sexual assault convictions for lower-ranking officers.
According to the Pentagon survey, only about one in 10 people who were sexually abused stepped forward to complain last year. That amounted to 3,374 cases in 2012, of which only about 3,000 chose to press charges. "Far fewer victims report sexual assault that are estimated to experience it on an annual basis," says a written summary of the Pentagon findings....
Excuse me? Discipline of whom exactly? And why would any military leader think there was discipline when in fact there was none!
...military leaders say would hurt their ability to maintain order and discipline....
This is permission for bad behavior. Very bad behavior. Why do military leaders say the very same words about women they said about gays?

During a career spanning more than 30 years in the United States Coast Guard, it stands to reason that Rear Adm. Sandra Stosz would have compiled a list of notable accomplishments. Along the way, a number of firsts were added to her list of achievements as well.
Stosz has logged countless nautical miles patrolling the North Atlantic, Great Lakes and Caribbean waters and becoming an experienced mariner with 12 years at sea, including command of two cutters.
