I was on fast attack boats out of Groton, CT. We decommisioned my first one (the Sculpin) and I finished my time on the Providence.
Always nice to run into a fellow sailor.

What would Patton do...? 
Yeah I know: I've been branded a non-group person - doesn't play well with others. I am so upset.
Let me know if you want to have some fun, without the drama - I'm good for that.

Hey, I'm living proof! I blush at the mention of a lot of things though. That is even if I do them, I don't talk much about them on open boards, LOL.DB...i really doubt some of our comments would make a sailor
I have that "Boy Scout" image to maintain, after all. My uniform with the Eagle Scout insignia still hangs in the back of my closet, even though I wouldn't fit into it anymore.
And those stories....were probably understated. I don't care to think about liberty calls in Halifax, NS or Gilbralter (with the British sub crew being in port).
