We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming tonight to bring you the following message from the Recruitment Office of the Liberty Navy First Fleet.
The Gentlemen of the Liberty Navy
Are you tired of civilian life? Lacking excitment, drive or purpose? Not enough eye-candy in your life?
So let's begin the introductions! This special will show half a dozen fine men of the Navy, from all levels of command. These fearless men have courage, dedication, and commitment to our country, Liberty. They're men of integrity, who are respectful and will take care of their compatriots. Can you meet their expectations?
We first bring to you Commander John Graham!
He may have the good looks you normally expect out of a movie, but he's actually one of our top rated pilots. Some attribute his skill behind the stick to a rumor that he prefers to wear ladies underwear while in his flight suit. Maybe you could ask him about it.
Next up, our trusted Quartermaster, Commander William Jensen.
He loves serving his country, but with the severe injuries he suffered in the line of duty long ago, the Commander sometimes has trouble taking his mind off that and his job. Perhaps you could be the one to help relieve his stress?
He plays by the book, but knows how to have fun, and loves to do things the old fashioned way, with a hands on approach.
Here's our longest serving Admiral, Rohj Teerin.
Now for a newer member, the young Ensign Tyrone Carter!
Has the stamina to stay on the stick for days of flight,
Never backs down from a challenging fight,
And he will last all night.
The beloved Commodore James Lambert.
A highly decorated member of the fleet, he has a chest made of brass, and a heart made of gold. He's highly protective of the people he cares about. Don't you want him to protect you?
Last, but not least, we present Vice Admiral Michael Morse.
One of the brightest new minds in the fleet, his rise through the ranks has been unprecedented, some attribute it more to his late night debriefing sessions, known to last for hours at a time.
Join up today, and you can serve alongside these great men, and many more!
It's now the time for you to prove your patriotism, and that you're a woman of high caliber! Be brave enough to fly alongside the gentlemen of the ...

To whoever is responsible for this,
I honestly don't know why you're aiming for this ... "marketing demographic", nor do I find it particularly amusing. Do you lot remember the flak you received from the last broadcast?
And how did you get access to my private NeuralBook™ account for that picture of me? The violation of privacy here is astounding. Lieutenant Commander Gomez, if I find out you were behind this, you won't see the end of it.
With disgust,
Admiral Teerin,
Liberty Navy First Fleet.

"You see what your knowledge tells you you're seeing. ... how, what you think the universe is, and how you react to that in everything you do, depends on what you know. And when that knowledge changes, for you, the universe changes. And that is as true for the whole of society as that is for the individual. We all are what we know, today. What we knew yesterday, was different; and so were we."

You guys are hilarious. Y'know that, right? Like, seriously hilarious. I nearly fell out of my chair laughing when I saw this thing, it was that funny. Y'should do more stuff like this, it honestly made my night when I saw it. 's nice to see a bit of equal representation for once. Gotta get some beefcake sometimes, right?
This sorta thing almost makes me wanna enlist.
Almost.
I gotta say, it's a tough call between all these guys, but if I had to choose one? Tyrone Carter looks reeeaaal nice. Got a soft spot for Lambert and John Graham, too. Wouldn't mind subscribing to this sorta thing, if y'plan on sending out more. Yeeees, please.
