Capt. Owen Honors in racy video

The former skipper and commanding officer of the USS Enterprise who lost his job after raunchy videos he made came to light will retire from the Navy. The Virginian-Pilot reports Capt. Owen Honors will leave the Navy on April 1st, after almost 30 years in the service. According to the newspaper, Honors shot and aired the racy videos on the USS Enterprise in 2006 and 2007:

Among other things, they contained anti-gay jokes, shots of a subordinate dressed in drag, and scenes of sailors pretending to shower together, masturbate and perform rectal exams on each other.

In addition to being fired from his position on the USS Enterprise, Honors was also issued a letter of censure – but he was allowed to stay in the Navy. According to the Virginian-Pilot, at roughly the same time, the Navy selected Honors for consideration for early retirement. The two events were unrelated.
