Navy Looking To Oust Sailor After 'Vampire Diaries' Sleepover!

Navy officials have launched discharge proceedings against a Petty Office, Stephen C. Jones, after he and another sailor were found in bed together, The Washington Post Reports

Though Jones insists he and his friend simply fell asleep while watching The Vampire Diaries, investigators claim their unintentional sleepover crossed "professional lines."

The investigative summary and charging documents do not specify how Jones's actions constituted unprofessional conduct. Jones said his friend often stopped by his room to watch videos, and noted that visiting hours lasted until 2 a.m. that Saturday night. He and his attorney said they have repeatedly asked the Navy for clarification.

[Thomas] Dougan, the Navy spokesman, acknowledged that no regulation specifically prohibits sailors from falling asleep in the same bed. But he said rules do require them to "behave professionally in the barracks" and that Bailey, the commanding officer, concluded that Jones and McGee had not done so. "The determination was that two sailors sharing the same rack was unprofessional."
