State Media: 'Three sailors-in-training were kicked off of the course and one of them is being released from the military, a spokesman for the navy said late Thursday night after questions about the incident were posed by CBC News.
'Four separate incidents allegedly took place between Feb. 15 and March 9 at different locations on the same training course at Canadian Forces Base Esquimalt, B.C.
'"We have made it clear that any form of harassment and inappropriate behaviour within our ranks is unacceptable," said Lt.-Cmdr. Anthony Wright in a statement late Thursday. '
If prospective sailors and their instructors have skin so thin as to break upon the utterance of a bad word, we do not have a hope of defending the homeland should we ever need to.
