Porn hunted down at Randolph AFB

In a worldwide sweep to rid its workplaces of sexually charged materials, the Air Force found 32,216 inappropriate or offensive items, including 40 pornographic magazines at the Air Education and Training Command headquarters at Joint Base San Antonio-Randolph.

In all, the Air Force found 631 pornographic items at more than 100 installations, including magazines, calendars, pictures, videos that intentionally displayed nudity or depicted acts of sexual activity.

<<<snip>>>

The service would not say what, if anything, was discovered at Lackland, which has been the focus of one the largest sex scandals in Air Force history. So far, 32 basic-training instructors have been accused of illicit contact with 56 women and three men at Lackland, home to all Air Force basic training.

The Lackland scandal will be the subject of a House Armed Services Committee hearing Wednesday.

I can understand pursuing the sex scandal. But porn? Really? Displayed nudity? OMG.

9. General Order #1 (no porn, no booze, no sex ... basically, no fun).

Rule of thumb: If it's fun, it's probably forbidden under GO1

3. And of course it all had to be carefully inspected to determine that it was indeed porn

A process that would have to work its way up through the chain of command no doubt.

Porn does not belong in the workplace. They also found videos of killings and torture.

They don't seem to have raided the dorms.
