These videos show how navy sonar affects marine mammals like killer whales and dolphins…even at distances of 12-15 miles away from the ship. You can hear the hideous sounds and see the animals swimming, some erratically, to shore in an attempt to escape the painful sound. If you are thinking of enlisting in the US Navy, you may be ordered to participate in this illegal & immoral activity

This is the list of ‘applicable statutes’ for the DD Form 4 military enlistment contract. Looking through the list, I’ve attempted to determine which appear to actually be applicable, and which “authorities” have been added to the list for intimidation with a (HUH? – or other text in bold blue) querying the applicability of that ‘authority’ to that of a general enlistment application.
