What's the local street-skinny on The Duke and his alleged pedoproblems? All I heard is silence from him and scramble noise from the fam of their getting tf away from him. And that the FBI still wants to speak to him lol. Everybody everywhere forgot about another yuge piece of fuckery by now.

Funny story. In 1988 I was in Sydney with my ship, invited to take part of the Aus Bicentennial. We were accompanied by BB-62 NEW JERSEY and 1 other destroyer the name I forgot by now. A massive month-long blowout. They had a giant naval review with like 50 or idk how many ships present from the free world navies, alot of major combatants and lesser ships. We were all in max liberty status, 30,000 sailors on the streets. On one Friday, everybody got underway to rehearse the naval review. HMS BRITTANIA was anchored in the harbor and every ship would exit the harbor, form up in a mile-long column and reenter the harbor, rendering honors...Brit-style to the Royal VIP and his ex, Fergie on the bridge wing of the Royal Yacht. Ships' PA system announces, "Three cheeres for Andrew, the Duke of York!" The crews, manning the rail responded, "Hip-hip-hooray!," with swinging our hats in a big swoop as each passed by overtaking. It was strange - we assumed many of the RN's traditions, but not that one...but it was kind of fun. On Saturday morning we did it again, for score. When my ship, a SPRUANCE-class destroyer came alongside, our Combat Systems Officer, chosen for his commanding voice announced, to the entire free world watching, "Three cheers for Andrew, The Duke of NEW YORK!" We lost it. Good shit.

The Royals have a following here - I remember the Queen visiting and thousands of housewives climbing over each other everywhere she went to get a look at her in the motorcades. Trump gets them to do that now btw lol. I loved the reception that she gave Trump at Windsor castle. I think it was there, not sure. My mom had an interest in them - she and QE were the same birth month and year. I have a mild interest in the history, but the only one I've ever or will disparage would be George III...but that's just my DNA.
