Naval officer complains over Romo’s Bitch call sign
19th August 2010
They don’t make Naval officers like they used to, apparently.
Ensign Steve Crowston claimed that when he was called into a room with fellow officers to be given their call signs, his name had been written on a white board with a list of suggestions that included “Gay Boy” and “Cowgirl”.
He said the group eventually voted for him to be known as “Romo’s Bitch” because he was a fan of Tony Romo, the Dallas Cowboys quarterback.
Mr Crowston, an administrative officer with Strike Fighter Squadron 136 at Naval Air Station, Oceana, Virginia, has not disclosed his sexual orientation but complained to senior officers.
Don’t Ask Don’t Tell apparently doesn’t include Don’t Whine.
