bhahahaha lady boys rejoice !!! BREAKING: LAND HOE! Nearly 5,000 exhausted American sailors and Marines are headed for shore leave in Thailand’s famously wild resort city of Pattaya after more than 200 DAYS at sea! And frankly, the HORNY SAILORS HAVE earned a few nights out. The USS Abraham Lincoln and two accompanying Navy ships are headed for Pattaya this week, finally giving thousands of sailors and Marines some desperately needed R&R after an exhausting Middle East deployment that has kept them at sea for more than 200 days. The Lincoln alone carries more than 5,000 people, including more than 800 women, and its crew has endured a deployment so punishing that reports have described terrible morale and suicide attempts aboard the carrier. And where is the Navy finally sending them ashore? Pattaya. The Thai beach resort has been welcoming American servicemembers since the Vietnam War and is famous for its anything-goes nightlife. But just the same it's an outstanding tourist destination packed with beaches, restaurants, great shopping and ancient temples galore. Local businesses are thrilled. Police, meanwhile, are beefing up patrols and recently conducted prostitution raids ahead of the Americans' arrival. Even Pattaya's police chief acknowledged that preventing solicitation could be “difficult.” We certainly aren't suggesting that every sailor should head for the girlie bars, or that every woman working in Pattaya's nightlife industry is selling anything other than a few drinks. But after their commanders kept these men and women at sea for more than 200 days, there are worse places to finally let them blow off some steam. Nearly 5,000 sailors and Marines are hitting the beaches.
