Parade apologizes for Nazi warship image used in Navy chef feature May 21st 2013, 18:28 Published May 21, 2013 FoxNews.com Parade Magazine is apologizing for a design error that depicted a Nazi battleship in a story about an award winning U.S. Navy chef. The magazine's top editor Maggie Murphy told USNI News that she was sorry for the mistake on a story that featured senior chief culinary specialist Derrick Davenport, a chef for the Joint Chiefs Chairman. With the tag, "Some of the best chefs aren't on TV," the piece about Davenport, who won the gold medal in the March 38th Annual Military Culinary Arts Competition at Fort Lee, Va., used a collection of ship silhouettes that included a World War II era Nazi battleship -- the Bismarck-class. "Mea culpa," wrote Murphy in an email to USNI News. "I regret we didn't dig deeper into the exact descriptions of the graphics we used for our story on Derrick Davenport this past Sunday," explaining that the silhouettes used were pulled from a collection of naval images that didn't distinguish between U.S. and foreign ships. Some readers like Christopher Cavas, a writer for Defense News on Sunday, instantly recognized the error when the piece was distributed via the Sunday papers, hoped that the mistake won't take away from the heart warming tale of Davenport's rise to the gold from the broom closet sized kitchen of the attack sub USS Annapolis. "We hope you'll join us in celebrating the accomplishments of the Navy's Derrick Davenport and his colleagues, and move on," Murphy wrote to USNI News.
