The right way, the wrong way, and the Navy way - Central Coast News KION/KCBA

MONTEREY, Calif. -- It was a famous movie The Caine Mutiny in 1954 that coined the phrase, "there's the right way, the wrong way, the Navy way."

Lieutenant Queeg played by actor Humphrey Bogart said this line after he was unsatisfied with the shipmates performance in the movie.

But what exactly has the "Navy Way" come to mean?

One Navy service member Central Coast News spoke to said what this basically means is the military has their own way of doing things, which may not be considered the right way in the "civilian world."

That could partially explain what the 130 page investigation by the Naval Inspector General on NPS leaders, revealed.

The investigation said what President Oliver did was "rule-breaking," crossing the navy code of ethics.

Several expert bloggers online pretty much say the same thing: the Navy Way, means a winning way, a way that is different than maybe civilians deem as right or wrong. But the service member we talked to would argue the Navy holds itself to a higher standard.
