Probably Reporting to A-School in the Back of a Shore Patrol Paddy wagon. They were just hanging out at Pensacola Airport and were kind enough to give my a lift.

Fell asleep in the Atlanta Airport. Would have missed my flight but luckily the gate ramp thing broke and they had to move the plane allowing me to make my flight home.

PO3 Aaron Hassay Kept looking for KGB agents taking pictures of us leaving Pensacola because our CTO instructor, a Gunny, thought it would be funny to tell us that there would be some.

Used to get a kick out of that in London, Watch the KGB taking pics of those entering the Embassy Side Door like me and MI-5/MI-6 (Brit Intel) Taking the KGB guys picture.

I remember when we went to my brother's graduation at Fort Knox, the first thing he wanted was a Big Mac, so guess what the whole family at that day? You damn right we went to Micky D's.

I told mine today to someone. I remember quite well my first strip club encounter, just north of Great Lakes, how did a bunch of young sailors make it a strip club? I was on the rail, I had my money, I was like wow, my first lap dance...18 yo, growing into a young man

LTJG (Join to see) - Thats cool my friend. I had to slow down a bit in the last few years. I could only go that strong only so long. How is the Navy these days? I hear it is in another force reduction phase, similar to when I was in 1994-2002. It looks like your doing well.
