Naval Service Sexual Assault

    A former member of the Defence Forces has claimed she was sexually assaulted by a crewman while they worked on board an Irish naval vessel berthed at Naval Service headquarters.

    The woman told a Cork court yesterday that, while the ship was on patrol at sea, the accused approached her in the mess area twice — once to ask her for a blow job, and on another occasion, to go to a cabin for “a quick one”.

    Came across this last night and found it interesting as I spent a year in the Navy. Any thoughts?

    So she was refuelling the ship and went to take a lighter out of her pocket?

    Of course not. We only get our fuel from neutral, non nuclear oil producing states...

    Case is currently in court, we can revisit it after legal proceedings are done.
