MM2 USN 79-84
USS Sampson DDG-10, USS Edward McDonnell FF-1039, USS Niagara Falls AFS-3, and the USS New Jersey BB62. Haze gray and underway! My service pales to most of yours, I am humbled.
your too young to know the code names, but the old folks on BB62 might remember "Firebird", "Speedy Lay Out", "trickey", "Scrambler One" thru "Scrambler Six" over in the Tam Key A.O. Your code name was "Big Boy." Or as the man said "rounds out; see you in a couple minutes."
gary
