I've never seen a post like that. I find it very strange. Talk about getting reviewed. He sure is asking for it here among some real Hard Chargers.

I wonder, do all Marines claim the high ground? Perhaps, it's a Corp trait.

SCPO Morris Ramsey - Not sure if you can read this PDF link I created SAM Manpower Crunch will explain SAM Manpower Drawndown 1994 the same year I enlisted 18. Supposedly there were only 900 SAM in the whole Navy that last year it was recruited. Would not mind if you had some feeback on this report. It is very likely considering there were only 14 or so FFG that possibly allowed a billet to a SAM, that I was 1 of very few, considering that 900 SAM were distributed evenly in all units beyond the FFG. There were no other ships allowing for even a possible billet in those years but the FFG. All other SAM Billets would of been shore units.

PO3 Aaron Hassay When did the SAM Program start. When was the first FFG commissioned? Those dates would allow for many SAM recruits to have served on figs.

SCPO Morris Ramsey - 1994 when I joined there were approximately 2970 units (pg 17) of which only 14 were FFG (pg 19) . The reports also state the SAM Program was drawn down and only 900 SAMs were accounted for (pg 10). I was 1 of those. I don't know if you read the report. I never met another SAM. I met alot of USN and TAR.
