'Cowboy' Groth made Sep 10 at 2018 5:23 AM2018-09-10T05:23:09-04:002018-09-10T05:23:09-04:00CWO3 Dennis M.3951369<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>For me I would have to separate the best based on categories of Commands. I joined in 1966 and retired in 1990. That is 23+ years of service. My best Sea command as an Enlisted would have to be the USS Enterprise CVN-65. A ship on which I made Chief Petty Officer (E-7) in 1979. Making CPO is a huge deal in the Navy. I also had a fairly large Division, all were standouts in various work centers, and to this day I stay in touch with many of them.<br /><br />By far, my best command at Shore duty as an enlisted would be 4 years in Hawaii in the mid 70's at the Naval Communications Area Master Station East Pacific (NAVCAMSEASTPAC) at Wahiawa Hawaii. I was maintenance Chief of the Massive 40 foot and 60 foot SHF parabolic Satellite terminals which were part of the world wide Defense Satellite Communications System (DSCS). How could 4years in Hawaii not be memorable?<br /><br />I now move to my best command as a commissioned Officer at sea, and that will easily be as the ships Combat Systems Test Officer (STO) in the USS Bainbridge CGN-25 (1984-1987). What an impressive crew manned that Nuke cruiser. The skipper was Capt J. Paul Reason, who many may know later in his career as a 4 star Admiral. I earned my Surface Warfare Officer Pin under his command. I served almost 4 years on that ship! He was without a doubt my most impressive mentor. <br /><br />The last best command would be as a commissioned officer on Shore duty. That would be the command at which I retired. That would be as the Combat Systems Department head at the Aegis Combat Systems Engineering and development Site (CSEDS) in Moorestown, New Jersey. I had a excellent crew of technicians that covered the entire ratings structure that makes up the Aegis combat systems Department of an Aegis Cruiser. I retired from the Navy at this command after 23 years of service.Response by CWO3 Dennis M. made Sep 10 at 2018 5:47 AM2018-09-10T05:47:40-04:002018-09-10T05:47:40-04:00SGT Mark Halmrast3951505<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>2/505 82nd ABNResponse by SGT Mark Halmrast made Sep 10 at 2018 7:18 AM2018-09-10T07:18:49-04:002018-09-10T07:18:49-04:00SFC(P) Private RallyPoint Member3951520<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>JCSE (Joint Communications Support Element)Response by SFC(P) Private RallyPoint Member made Sep 10 at 2018 7:25 AM2018-09-10T07:25:16-04:002018-09-10T07:25:16-04:00LTC Private RallyPoint Member3951904<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Professor of Military Science-Morgan State UniversityResponse by LTC Private RallyPoint Member made Sep 10 at 2018 9:45 AM2018-09-10T09:45:04-04:002018-09-10T09:45:04-04:00CSM Chuck Stafford3951912<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>As they say -- the best units are the one you just left and/or the one you are going to.

I was in the JCSE 1987-1992. What makes this unit so unique? This communications unit (brigade sized) has all four branches of the US Military: Army Air Force, Navy, and Marines. The mix of the different branches are evidences all the way down into the team level. For a communications-electronics person, this is THE Premiere Military Unit. It is based at MacDill AFB in Florida. This unit supports each of the Unified Commands, worldide. There is none fine! I spent twenty years in the Army, serving everywhere from Korea to Germany and all between. The JCSE was my pinnacle.
