Big Stan, you need to lighten up, lad! We are all very stressed right now. I would NEVER make a joke about a person’s infirmity, but Major’s sentence structure (did the destroyer really have an amputated arm?) made my husband and me laugh hysterically. I think that most people would take my comment in the proper vein. Please relax.

It's just that I actually took the post as it was very obviously intended, as in he was on a destroyer while this occurred. If you don't know Destroyers don't get real doctors, they get pharmacist mates and maybe a visiting dentist now and again. All have cross training, and cover as needed. And if someone loses a limb or is otherwise wounded everyone jumps in, in this case I imagine to stabilize and get a couple major arteries flowing so said limb can be saved by more competent folks. Sorry if you think that's a joke and I don't, different paths in life I guess. |

Destroyers are well-armed. They even carry depth charges.
