@APepperWWMT So good to see you the other night Pep! I had just talked to @NateBrownSports at the Martin baseball game. Hope your recovery continues well. Didn’t want to intrude to see where / what you were doing when we “conversed” earlier this spring.
@SGTWipper1Each How about those acronyms that started in the military and have crept into the standard vernacular. I hear SNAFU & FUBAR used quite regularly by people who really shouldn’t be using those. Clergy. Media. School administrators.
@Over60NavyVet I started in DEP as a PH (spring of ‘83) but had a medical issue that delayed reporting to basic. Ended up as a PR. Went thru a program called BOOST, followed by NROTC and ECP. Commissioned in ‘91. Went SWO & reported to MCM1 Avenger. Ended selected for CDR and retired 01/07. ⚓️
@SGTWipper1Each Padeye wrench. Bucket of steam. Striped paint. Board stretcher. 6 feet of gig line. The Captain’s Crank - but it needs to be quick because we have to get the mast down before we pass under the bridge. HURRY!

"There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely games."
