NAVY Top Brass have renamed war training exercises for Royal Marines – as the old ones were “too sexual and aggressive”.
Direct Action — an ultra-tough course used to train more than 1,000 recruits a year — has been rebranded Dragon Warrior.

The military has made a number of woke changes
Others at the Commando Training Centre getting a makeover include base capture test Violent Entry, which will now be called Green Salamander, while Final Thrust becomes Commando Forge.
A former instructor at the base in Lympstone, Devon, said: “The woke police have nailed us — and it’s ridiculous.
“We’re preparing young men and women to go to war and what we do is violent and aggressive.
“It’s amazing that military people have the time to worry about stupid issues like this.”
A Free Speech Union spokesman called it “typical of the woke double-think that has infected our Armed Forces”.
“Next they’ll be warning Marine Commandoes to avoid ‘micro-aggressions.’”
The Sun previously told how Navy bosses have swapped the term “seaman” for “seafarer” to be more inclusive, while the RAF now uses “aviator” instead of either airman or airwoman.
A Royal Navy spokesman yesterday said: “All aspects of training exercises are regularly adapted and updated, including to align with standard naming protocols.”
