Homeland Security
Here’s an example of Airline Security Rules and the minor inconvenience they can cause. It’s the text of an e-mail sent out to the local Alumni Chapter… the names have been changed to protect the innocent.
Looking for a little help for a newly commissioned USNA Ensign and his wedding plans this weekend.
Please share with any or all Jacksonville Naval Officers
The airlines are preventing his swordsmen from transporting their ceremonial swords on the airplane, so Ensign W.T.Door is scrambling to find some temporary replacements in support of his wedding this weekend. The wedding is to be held in the Riverside area of Jacksonville with follow-on activities at NAS Jacksonville.
The recently graduated academy swordsmen will be staying at NAS Jacksonville.
Ensign W.T Door’s wife to be (Miss Local Young Lady; w.t.door@nospam.com) is working now to determine exactly how many swords are needed and at what length.
If any of the members of the Jacksonville Chapter have a sword that can be used to support the wedding, please contact either W.T. or Miss Local Young Lady directly at w.t.door@nospam.com or (904) 555-USNA (W.T.’s cell). They will work out all the details of carefully receiving and returning all of the swords.
