Where were you or your family stationed?
The LaSalle was my first duty station out of boot camp. I reported on board early November 1978 and left just before Christmas the following year-December 1979.
What a year, iran Crisis, playing cat and mouse with the Soviet ships, I think all I did was stand watch, or was at GQ, but what an invaluable learning experience that shaped my values at such a tender young age of 19 at that time.
I got out in 1981 nd wnet back into the reservesd in 1990 and got out in 94-when offered a commision I had to go back active duty which I declined.
