wow, a sailor who paid for female attention in the Philippines, must have been the first time that ever happened.

If they caught him buggering some dude in the butt on the Bridge, he'd still have his job, and they'd have him telling about his brave journey in a training video.

When I joined we drank whiskey and talked about the women we screwed.
Today, they drink diet Pepsi and talk about screwing each other

Yanno back then, with the surety of youth, getting a girl pregnant was like end of the World, a lifetime prison sentence, the end of life as you knew it. Today, looking back over the decades, I sometimes wouldn’t mind an extra kid or two. Which is why I move to Thailand when I’m 70.

Well, he would have 'lost his command' anyway since the boat was on its way to be decommissioned.. As to the actual charge - it's nothin' but a BS move by the command..

What? Adultery is good for your career? Conduct unbecoming and all that.... I got a relative missed a promotion and couldn’t re-up because of it, but she was enlisted, maybe they are held to a different standard.
Your relative lied to you.

I'm waiting for the navy guys to chime in on this.
First off, is Capt. Zettel married, and was his wife aware of these activities? 10 prostitutes in port ain't some sort of developing romance with a co-worker. What level of integrity do we expect from a man in his position?
How much classified info would Captain Zettel have had access to?
Would hiring prostitutes put him at risk for blackmail?
Does nobody watch these guys in port, what are the odds that one or more of the prostitutes may have been a foreign agent?
This is the stuff _I_ would think about if I had successfully risen all the way in rank to be given my own friggin' submarine.
But what do I know?
Well, on the bright side, since he is prob'ly going to be unemployed before too long, and since he is likely to soon be single if he weren't already, he can now move to the Phillipines and hire all the prostitutes he cares to.
I knew several Navy wives that said they didn't care what he did at sea as long as he didn't bring it home.
The older I become the more I am convinced that the voice of honor in a man's heart is the voice of GOD.

,...he'd be in his late 70's today. Considering that was 74-75 years ago at a minimum just exactly how old was your dad when he enlisted? 3 or 4 years old? Check your math B. 😉

If he hired male prostitutes he would have received the Bathhouse Barry award and given another command.

Wow, Things have sure changed. Spent some time in Subic Bay, City of Olongapo back in 55 and 56. Back then the main street was lined with churches.

Maybe it was the lack of discretion and judgement. And of course the adultery bit, if he was married. Services frown on that. Perhaps selectively applied?

Favoring female companionship is now enough to cause a man to lose a Naval command?
Seriously,...Those women were selling a service,...the man was willing to buy it.
Why does that make him unfit to command?
Men need to get laid. Being out on a 6 month cruise can make that complicated. It really doesn't seem to me that purchasing the service of a LBFM during those times would indicate that a man was unfit to command. He was supporting the local economy. He deserves a medal. kwg
