A U.S. Navy air crew was grounded on Friday after using their advanced fighter jet to draw a giant image of a man-hood in the sky with the exhaust, officials said
The incident took place in skies over Okanogan County in Washington state on Thursday, when a Navy E/A-18 Growler warplane flew the unusual air pattern.
Images of a condensed air trail in the shape of a man-hood immediately went viral on social media. A local television station said one mother in Okanogan County was concerned she might have to explain them to her young children.
The Navy, which is trying to crack down on s*xual assault in its ranks, issued a formal apology on Friday for what it called an “irresponsible and immature act.”
“Sophomoric and immature antics of a s*xual nature have no place in Naval aviation today,” Vice Admiral Mike Shoemaker, the commander of Naval Air Forces, said in a statement.
“We will investigate this incident to get all the facts and act accordingly.”
