Ron, Thor:

Wellll...I was on SEATTLE from May of 1981 to May 1983. I believe our pre-deployment loadout trip to Yorktown was June, so I was onboard when you were busting the little dope-fiends.

When I first got there, the SEATTLE was doper heaven. They even busted two guys for smoking a number IN THE AMMO MAG. Shortly after I reported aboard was when the Navy started the Zero Tolerance policy, and things got better.

I was PRP (Nuc Weps Rover), and had to piss in the little jar frequently and avoided the ganja-crowd like the plague.

Besides, when I messcranked, a BT3 showed me how to make bodacious bilge wine. At one point I had fifteen gallons a-brewin' in the vegetable reefer...

Ahhh, I see, I had BTDT long before you!!

Man, splavman, that's an impressive list of assignments. FTSCLANT, two Aegis cruisers...nice.

I'm sure the Army and Marine assignments are just as impressive, but I never bothered with learning what all those acronyms meant.

Damm guys had to go get my cane the only one I saw was Cedarbird that was old as I am and maybe RIML so I will just put 1956-1973 all in between Minesweepers,service craft ,Nam, AOG ,Gator Freighter,.

Just what we need, another Navy Cop !!




Ohh, Howdy Riml !!

My un-illustrious Army career:

• Nov 1967 – Dec 1968. USATC – Armor, Fort Knox, KY. Took basic and AIT and then was assigned to two basic training companies.

• Jan 1969 – Jan 1970. 179th Aviation Company (ASH), 52nd CAB, 17th ACG, 1st Aviation Brigade, Pleiku RVN

• Feb 1970 – Nov 1970. 1st Staff & Facility Battalion, Transportation School Brigade, Fort Eustis, VA

I ended up being a company clerk and then working in personnel on Eustis, though, I worked in the motor pool for a while in RVN and got to drive a convoy or two. I ended up being a SP5 which allowed me to pull post guard on Eustis (SP5s only) but for some reason they would not give us ammo. When necessary, they always found a trainee to pull guard with a loaded weapon.

English...anybody here speak English? (not psuedo "military"...with all those damn acronyms sometimes I have no idea whats being written.

Funny you should ask, Pelsar. LOL, just a few days ago, I was considered 'suspect' ( all in good fun ) because my English was too well spoken!


HAL ~ Ruminatin' bout da Southern Tribesman and Furry Friends.

HarryP...good to see a crazy chopper bro!

English? A Washington ridge runner?

I don't remember ever understanding Navy ranks on their uniforms. I just saluted anyone who looked "official"..
