Sailor proudly rocks 'E-4 Mafia' patch as he stands watch on USS Abraham Lincoln

I'll wager some chief on his boat wasn't too happy seeing it on "Task and Purpose" . . . ;-0

MAJ Dale E. Wilson, Ph.D. - I had patches made like this sticker while stationed on the USS Nimitz. I was giving one to a fellow Nuke when a Chief went by and about sprained his neck when he saw it. For some reason I did not seem to save one for me, but I still have the sticker in my scrap book.

PO3 Thomas Lawrence - I served in the Navy in the Eighties and 'FTN' = 'Fuck the Navy'. This is new one on me.

PO3 James Heine - That is why the chief in my story almost strained his neck turning to see it. I told him it didn't mean what he thought it did. He had not seen the Free The Nukes on it. I was a Nuke on the Nimitz from 76 to 80.

Its Absolutly not !

Not one that I've ever seen.

Of course it is . . .
