Thetis huh? I was on Legare for awhile. 270 sailors are the real deal. If you can survive that ordeal, you can survive anything.

Dude, I'm a plankowner on that P.O.S., precommissioned it (decom'ed the Lipan too, ugh).  We had to take it when it was 90% complete in the yards because the yard workers went on strike. I personally labeled half that damned engine room myself. Sea trials were the most surreal experience of my life... besides REFTRA at Gitmo.

GAWD DID SOMEONE SAY GITMO??????????/


Jeeez, talk about living a nightmare......

Used to spend weeks at REFTRA, was a heck at times, but there were a lot of good times. Used to spend time off, down there, up the river on the far side of the harbor. Would rent "john-boats", cross the harbor, up the river and tie them into a raft....spend the rest of the day drifting back down. Many many beer cans later we would crank up and head back to the base.....Ever try to pilot a johnboat, loaded to the gunnels with beer, across open water? Makes walking on the bulkheads seem fun!


Next Question.......Wheres all the Shellbacks?


Squids!

GUNNERS RULE!
(as well as being one of the ORIGINAL three rates of the Nav!)

And to think I spent 7 years treating this kind for gonorrhea- not, of course, suggesting that any occurred in this group! I may be in Charleston then with the wife & mother & may get cut some slack. I'll PM if it flies.
