Dolphin minesweeper returns from being AWOL

Dolphin minesweeper returns from being AWOL Tacoma, the dolphin whose disappearance generated so much discussion last week (I take that back, 20-odd comments hardly counts as "much" on MeFi), was found safe and sound near Umm Qasr. Are military dolphins subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice? This at least calls for an Article 15.

I'm sure there is a ton of money invested in that dolphin.

Just a little dolphin prank. You humans. So serious! (I'm glad he's okay.)

Are military dolphins subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice? Aw, Flipper was just taking himself a little break like our Prez used to do during his illustrious TX Air National Guard career. Call it a Duhbya timeout.

Hypothetically speaking, if they were to replace a dolphin that had been killed in the line of duty, how would anybody ever know?

How did they lure him back? Did they hit a saw with a ballpeen hammer?

Sweet. If he fucks up and brushes up against a mine, I'll take my dolphin burger medium.
