An Internet message caught my attention when I read that an Air Force staff sergeant who was photographed nude for a February 2007 Playboy magazine spread has been suspended while the military investigates her behavior in posing semi-nude and nude for Playboy magazine.
The Air Force position according to the Associated Press was that "this staff sergeant's alleged action does not meet the high standards we expect of our airmen, nor does it comply with the Air Force's core values of integrity, service before self, and excellence in all we do."
The staff sergeant basically takes the position that appearing nude while in uniform is acceptable behavior. I'll vote for the Air Force on this one! This staff sergeant trains airmen at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas.
Over the years, I have followed Playboy as an afficionado of sorts, and I can recall several previous incidents where beautiful women posed for Playboy and were then relieved of their duties. Hmmmmmmm.
I'm no prude, but this seems like loose-cannon type behavior to me. I saw an interview of this woman and she explained that if Playboy could be purchased in the Post Exchange, she should be allowed to pose nude. It will be interesting to see how this incident plays out.
In the meantime, can someone please email me photos of this woman's pictures in Playboy so I can view them as part of my research! The pictures will tell me all I need to know and I won't need to read the corresponding article as a picture is worth a 1000 words!
The question I pose to the men and women of the death-care industry is to ask, what are the core values for this industry; and, what are your core values?
I would appreciate reading your responses. Email me at Burton@USAMonuments.com and I will post select responses here.
