Friday lovers club. What are the feasts of American sailors?

The tradition of celebrating certain events by military personnel with the invitation of family members is by no means unique to the Armed Forces of Russia. Joint parties during the holidays - a tradition for the US Army. The most popular type of holiday pastime for American military personnel and their families is Thanksgiving and Christmas. Holiday "collection" is typical for the crews of warships of the US Navy.

The plot contains footage of one of these parties, which was held among the personnel of the destroyer of the USS UST Curtis Wilbur (DDG-54). The same destroyer, whose appearance in the disputed islands in the South China Sea caused sharp criticism from official Beijing.

The crew of the American destroyer is 337 man, of which 23 are officers.

So how do American sailors celebrate Christmas?

The official on a warship: "Celebrate, but do not forget that democracy is in danger ..."

Further, in an informal atmosphere.

Raffle gifts for the crew and family members (stormy enthusiasm for finding PS4):

Everyone is waiting for when they finally tell about the hard work of American black women on the construction of American roads.

[Logall]

If there were no blacks (African-Americans (nok)), then ordinary gatherings are akin to ours. People need holidays!
PS: Afro-people also meet on Russian holidays, but either this is a rarity or is no longer a standard event ...

But I want to note! Even on such a holiday, they managed to attract sponsor / s! At the table with gifts, there is a banner "Samsung".
It would be very good if our megaphones and others supported our employees a little and presented them .... well, for example, lighters, multifunctional sets like a penknife.

Sponsors, maybe they attracted. Only it is not a banner, but a box with a TV.

Right! ))) Thank you for correcting.
Well, gifts in any case are good, not Santa's figure)))

It’s unlikely: NBC’s Megin Kelly was already fired for mentioning blacks, even stardom didn’t help

Friday lovers club. What are the feasts of American sailors?

everything that I saw, no differences from all the Sailors of any country ... when the youngest served in the Baltic, (7 years ago) they had a "letyokha", with an earring in his tongue (on Kazantip vlyndil) ... but a photo ... I am not I will spread it ... (although I saved it), and "letёkha" threw off the sailors! Anyone have questions?

[Finches]

Such funny pin ..., Americans!

[bessmertniy]

They would have a good horse and plow, but a clean field. And - to plow from horizon to horizon, and not think about enemies.

[Finches]

To be serious, it is precisely these kids of the war who do not want most of all ...!

[Mestny]

These kids do not want a war in which their asses will suffer.
And to destroy all subhuman by pressing buttons - why. Such a war completely suits them, they even want to get bigger and faster, earn extra money and stand up for democracy. save your best country in the world from wild barbarians.
... They say the German soldiers who were destroying us, too, were quite guys for nothing. Both families and children loved holidays.
It remains only to recall whether families and children in besieged Leningrad, for example, loved the same thing.
These are enemies. Our future killers. Here they are, with their ship and missiles. If we do not stop them, they will make their lovely holidays after we turn into oblivion and ashes.

If we talk about a real war, then this is not about them. These "kids" are used to seeing the war as a computer toy.
They are used to living hearty and sweet, and do not want to strain, but they want everyone to be afraid of them.
For many of them, the hardships and deprivations of a real war are something unbelievable.

[Krasnodar]

With the girls they have sadness. Only two more or less from all photos.

It’s just interesting to see the life of ordinary people.

No, here it’s about something else, or they’ve gotten so close that everyone has sailed away, or sadness with the food culture in America, and indeed with the culture.

There are a lot of thick ones. And with culture: Russian classics - literature and music are respected there. Those with a tower in a good university are quite developed people. But the rest of the nation is quite isolated, the bulk of what is going on beyond its state does not perceive, because not interested. And everyone scolds Washington

[shark]

And those, more likely no more, but less. Purely in contrast they win. Still a terrible nation.

[Krasnodar]

One African-American woman there is nothing, in profile with a camera. In terms of exotic

[bessmertniy]

This inferiority makes them fear of God for the whole world.

[Snail N9]

There are some "fattrests". I was amazed how many Americans eat - they constantly chew something - no, not "chewing gum" - they eat either their "donuts" - sweet rings, or hamburgers, or cakes, or muffins, or some other "tasty" to their taste. Even children go to school with clear signs of obesity. Moreover, many like "sports" are engaged in the morning, whole crowds in tracksuits "shake the fat" -type run .... In general, I once read an article that the problem with obesity in the United States is caused by two factors: 1-Americans are not they know how and do not want to suppress their desires, from childhood they are brought up as "free" individuals, but in fact, finished egoists, 2-unstable psyche is the scourge of all Americans, they constantly want something, but there is no way to satisfy this "want" , which causes the strongest stress, which they "seize" with all sorts of sweets. In general, the Americans themselves, those who are in the second and more generations are a finished nation, sheer degradation. Everything they keep on the wave of migration - fresh migrants are the most productive and active part of society, they try their best to become "Americans", gain a foothold in the country, get at least some position, etc. And already, their children become "real Americans "-fat, selfish, die-hard, etc. (hereinafter, everything is according to Zadornov) ...

[7gor]

Krasnodar, you are too picky

[Ros 56]

I wish all visitors to the site a better weekend than striped ones. Good luck.

Nothing interesting happens there.

Boring live ... But what about dancing with massacre? No, people do not know how to relax ...

Because of women?

[Mestny]

Because of these?
Well, I don’t know ... I won’t drink so much.

[AleBors]

Definitely not because of those in the photo ...

[Qwertyarion]

They have their own joys, we have their own sorrows, but still Friday and it pleases!

[Mestny]

And our joys? Really no?

[Qwertyarion]

Yes, of course there are joys, but the constant increase in prices for everything and everything, the unexpected people from the government in the form of pension reform, etc. adds to sadness.

[Mestny]

Well, then so - and how do they have sorrows, or are they just joys?

[Qwertyarion]

They are fine!

This is how it relates to the topic? And so ... People like people, like us, with their joys and daily routines ... So wish them after that seven reefs under the keel ..

. People like people, like us, with their joys and daily routines ...

But they humanize us. And we should consider them as people.
This is how it works.

[Mestny]

Almost. Only a few years left.

[Altona]

Well, what? Everything is as usual. The sailors have no questions. With us, only such expensive gifts are not played out of course, and people will not understand such a number of cakes. On the table should be salads, salads, hot, salads, meat, meat, meat, fish, fish. Essno, after each plate should be a bottle of alcohol-vodka, moonshine, cognac, red and white wine. All with Friday!

[Invoce]

It’s okay to have a rest ... like in our armed forces, when they are going to partly celebrate a holiday ...

When we celebrated the New Year or Part Day, we never had such meager tables as they had, always tables were bursting with food and drink, wives tried - they cooked. By the way, no one ever got drunk to unconsciousness, commanders and wives nearby, it was always worthy and fun.

Well, moonshine does not happen ... everything is very culturally and moderately ... in the official part ... and afterwards there is everything ... any family is not without problem members ... sometimes pigs find dirt where it is not by definition

[Altona]

Quote: Invoce

--------------------
And what is NON-CULTURAL in moonshine? Which is called moonshine or moonlight in English. You are in vain. Good moonshine is nonic; I will tell you not that of the store. People will confirm.

[Mestny]

I confirm.

[g1washntwn]

It sounds like the beginning of the film "Under Siege" ... the model fell asleep in the cake, the terrorists hijacked the ship, but at the end the cook Seagal defeated everyone ... Urya, democracy is not in danger again.

[Alancrios]

I looked at the photo and for some reason remembered the first episode of the film with the Signal, "in the Siege" now I would like to click all of them warm and drunk

[Semen1972]

The author revealed another abscess on the body of the planet. The article is very interesting and timely, showing what we can come to if the power of GDP passes to the liberals.

[Blue fox]

In principle, it is quite a normal event and in many ways is similar to ours. The only thing is that with most of the girlfriends and wives of the sailors I could not control melee different weight categories.

[Archivist Vasya]

Honestly, I don’t see anything unusual, a standard corporate holiday, like ours.
I also like to celebrate Friday, it will also be necessary to note this evening, of course, not on such a scale as the military in the article, but still)))
