US Navy takes down female sailor's comic YouTube clip

When sailors aboard the US aircraft carrier Ronald Reagan videoed themselves dancing, in a radiation suit, around the ship's nuclear power source to the tune of Shania Twayne's 'That Don't Impress Me Much', it just seemed like a bit of a laugh - the kind of thing you'd post to YouTube.

But Navy top brass didn't see the funny side. They ordered the removal of the clip, "Women of CVN76: That Don't Impress Me Much" from the video-sharing network. Not because of security rules (military types don't tend to like publicising details of their nuclear propulsion systems to potential enemies) but because those in the video showed a "lack of propriety" in using their safety equipment."

So there you have it, employees. If you're going to risk your company's reputation in a social media post, at least have the foresight to comply with health and safety guidance!
