Cool, my brother-in-law is a Lieutenant Commander. He is currently station in Rhode Island, but has spent the last 6 months in Iraq.

From what I've heard the academy is enough to keep you busy...

Haha, it can. I never really understood the term "sleep deprivation" until I got here, that's for sure.

Yep STG, we hunted you bubble heads. Glad I am not in now, SONAR is getting lots of crap from the Greenies and whale lovers.

I brought her back from japan. My helo squadron had SAR duty for the Kitty Hawk on the way to Hawaii. We met the Indy there and cross decked to her for the return trip back to SD. Man the Indy was beat down. Rode hard and put up wet.

MA huh. Well go easy on those guys. You have the power to really jerk your shipmates around if you wanted. Not that you do. I just remember how much I dreaded hearing an MA say, "Hey Sipmate!" It usually wasn't wasn't something good...

Damn, small world. I was on that cruise back to the states as well. Probably bumped into each other at some point. Nah, I was never the "better than you" tough guy MA that some were. No place in the world for people like that.
