This is a no shitter, happened 20 minutes ago.
One of the local groups has a few retired Chiefs and I was sitting around shooting the shit with em.
For the non-Navy folks, Chiefs are the senior enlisted ranks. The top three enlisted ranks have separate messing and berthing on the ship and the only non-Chief that is permitted entry without knocking and being admitted is the Skipper, and even he generally knocks.
Anyhow, tonight, I'm shooting the shit with a couple retired Chief brothers and a retired officer (Lieutenant Commander) walks up.
We were talking about food in the mess and feeding visiting wives and the cost because we would buy our own food. One of my buddies was talking about buying grass fed beef. With no prompting the LCDR says, "Yeah, when my wife came to the ship she would go to the Chief's mess because they had the best meat."
I literally spit my tea all over the place.
Poor fucker didn't even realize what he'd said but we were all laughing too hard to tell him.
