Navy Captain Relieved for Hiring 10 Prostitutes

It makes me wonder how long this guy has been doing this considering he was so open and flamboyant about it before being caught:

Capt. Travis Zettel, then-commander of the fast-attack submarine USS Bremerton, salutes sideboys at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam, Hawaii, Aug. 5, 2016.

The commander of a fast-attack submarine was relieved of his duties last summer after admitting he paid for “female accompaniment” during a stop in the Philippines, a Washington state newspaper reported Friday.
Capt. Travis Zettel, who lost his job aboard the USS Bremerton in late August because of “a loss in confidence in his ability to command,” was reassigned to the Submarine Squadron 19 staff at Naval Base Kitsap-Bangor, Navy officials said at the time. (……)

During the submarine’s March visit to Subic Bay, Philippines, Zettel was seen with 10 “provocatively dressed females outside the front door of [his] hotel,” a sailor told the Naval Criminal Investigative Service after calling an Inspector General hotline, according to the newspaper.
The tipster said Zettel told him and another sailor that he’d “ordered ten girls,” the report said. Another sailor told investigators he saw Zettel walking around and talking to other sailors in his command with “three local females holding onto his arm.”

I know a guy who was a weapons contractor for some Russian businessmen (no, not Flynn). He said they always hired a superfluous number of prostitutes, so they could reject some. So…maybe the commander felt he needed that sort of thing. Alternately, maybe some of them stood around like the Price Is Right girls, clapping and stuff (because he needed that sort of thing).

Maybe he had a foot fetish. Locked their shoes up in a closet. Menage et Diem.

Only 10?

If he had gotten 20, he would have had a real score.

Social media openness ended the era of ‘what happens on deployment stays on deployment.’

And throwing away good money to take out 10 or more hookers makes no sense. There is a diminishing return. After the first two or three, there is no more bang for the buck.
