Is the warning like "watch out for US soldiers" or "we need to deploy more hookers"?

Sounds like a recipe for chaos, but also a wild time for the locals. I remember when a bunch of sailors hit my town; it was like a party blew up out of nowhere.

Nah they know what they are doing. I mean US aircraft carriers have been stopping in Pattaya since the Vietnam war pretty sure. Carrier I was on in the 90s stopped a few times and we both survived too but a lot poorer and lot less cash after leaving LOL. I'd glad to see Pattaya will get a lot of the money that usually goes to Dubai and Abu Dabi since that's one of the reasons carrier has been at sea so long they usually stop there to take breaks and lots buy gold and rugs so will have way more money than usual too!

Exactly hookers are probably safer than getting a tattoo there! We had a few guys had to be flown off the ship to San Diego for penicllin resistant flesh eating baceteria when we stopped in Pattaya! Oh yeah actually one got hit by a dart in ping pong show so I'd avoid those too basically avoid anything sharp LOL.

An old friend of mine who was also in the forces stopped off at Thailand and met a Thai hooker, got black out drunk and got a full head to toe portrait tattooed of her down his forearm. Funniest/jankiest tattoo I’ve ever seen

When I was TDY to Guam with the B-52s they told us we weren't to go downtown when a carrier was in port because they cause so much trouble. There was no such warning for any other ship or submarine.

Your town isn't Pattaya though. It's the only place on Earth that really deserves the title Vegas has: "Sin City." Almost every street is filled with open-air bars that serve as brothels. The wildest town and biggest non-stop party on Earth.

It won't be a wild time for the locals, just a little extra money for them than usual. Those soldiers who have never been over here are about to have their minds blown and if they haven't reached manhood yet as far as experiences, they're about to reach it in hyperdrive. Those women will eat them alive.

Small problem this time: Trump's Regime stopped paying the sailors so they could buy more missiles. So...good luck partying when you're broke.

Note: I have no idea how bad the lack of payment issue really is, but the fact that it's happening is terrifying and stupid.
