Airborne Porn: Soldiers Gone Wild!

If you follow the Associated Press newswire, you might have tsk-tsked at the latest porn-in-uniform scandal. After Tailhook and Dirk Yates, it’s not exactly unplowed ground, is it? But when you throw in one of the Army’s elite combat units and semi-rural North Carolina, you get a rise out of us.

The AP says Army officials are looking into charges that seven of its paratroopers from the 82nd Airborne took part in gay porn that’s posted online to a Web site registered out of Fayetteville, North Carolina. (Better-versed porn hounds than us suggest it’s a certain military-themed Web site, but we can’t confirm.) While the site doesn’t mention Fort Bragg in particular, military officials told the AP that the base is the site of the investigation. About 15,000 soldiers make up the 82nd, and active duty has them in Iraq and Afghanistan and we can only assume and hope to see, each other.
