I am reminded that that's as far as that arm goes, owing to torture.
He does kinda have a Popeye thing going there, though...he probably would be pleased with the comparison, actually.

4. It was the wink that make me think "Popeye"... |

5. Popeye is a term of endearment, too, amongst some of us old Navy types! |

When you meet someone named Popeye on most vessels, it's either some crusty chief or LDO with a few quirks and no small amount of attitude, who is supremely capable in their chosen endeavor...!
