I found out the other day a guy who joined the navy about twenty years ago was circumcised as part of his entry into the Navy. All the men were circumcised for hygene reasons.My question is if I joined today would I be circumcised as well?

No it is not true.
However it is true, so the story goes, that you cannot have sex with another sailor until you are at sea for forty seven [47] days. At which point it is thought the urge for sex will be so great that men might jump overboard and commit suicide.
It's only a rumour.
Very much in the manner of Winston Churchill as First Sea Lord describing the Royal Navy as "rub, bum, baccy and the lash."
It's all a load of nonsense just to put you off.

I joined the Royal Navy in 1981, served 23 years and never in all that time was circumcised, nor was anyone I know circumcised for hygiene reasons. I was aware of one bloke who was circumcised due to the foreskin being too tight, but that's it: perhaps they should do the op on Brown the Clown's Defence wallet, for the same reason.

as long as you do not develop right into a nuke, i imagine it s superb. I served 6 years as a nuke and the acceptable component I did for myself replaced into get out. i'm now thankfully using the GI bill to pay for my preparation. besides the very incontrovertible truth that i can't hardship you with each and every of the undesirable and inhumane issues nukes might want to pass by ability of, i will allow you to comprehend this. The army advertises itself as launching jets, taking pictures huge guns, and using all this cool kit. It s often janitor paintings and they use those classified ads to purpose punk *** youngsters to signal away their freedom. once you're contained in the army they take care of you want **** and also you'll t go away because you do not want to get a dishonorable discharge which will be on your list for existence. again, I dont imagine each and every of the army is undesirable, basically nuke existence.

Another Naval Myth just like Rum, Bacckie & Buggery.
He was proberly the only exception as he had a medical problem and circumstition was deemed to be the cure.
