On the California CGN-36 if you asked the skipper it was "California Dreaming" if you asked the crew it was "Hotel California". My favorite Music story comes courtesy of 50th Aniversary of VJ Day, We were Lead Ship in the parade of ships in front of Waikiki with every victorius country in the Pacific Represented (To Include the Russians). I was USS Arkansas CGN-41 Presidents Flag Ship. After the pass in review the were putting the ships back into place in Pearl Harbor, Tied our bow first Where I was standing "Manning the Rail" and then swung our rear around on Hotel Pier,. All of a sudden I hear the Collision Alarm, Can't leave my post but "WTH". After we tied up I asked those from Aft what happened, "Look Port next to us" USS Sacramento our floating gas station that had a huge "Key Job" down the Starboard Side, Apparently the crew put up the Aft Flag Mast/Staff and the tugs drug it across the Starboard Side of the Sacramento, 3 days later we do a Refuel with Sacramento and as Navy Tradition Dictates a song is played on the Speakers, What does Sacramento Play "You got to keep them Seperated".Response by PO1 William "Chip" Nagel made Apr 4 at 2014 7:47 PM2014-04-04T19:47:44-04:002014-04-04T19:47:44-04:00PO2 Michael Campbell108682<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Funny enough you brought this up.

I would have to say, however, that our Broadway review show at the Heidelberg Stadthalle was my favorite set. Christmas shows were always good, too, as they brought a feeling of holidays at home to our troops and families in Europe.Response by SGT Lynia Ghormley made May 11 at 2022 7:42 PM2022-05-11T19:42:46-04:002022-05-11T19:42:46-04:002014-04-03T08:56:17-04:00
