  • doc I don't know if I am at the right person but I put in a serch for new jersey vetern come back not found but if you use my name it there

  • I saw the decommissioning of the USS Nassau which my brother and I were stationed aboard together.  We were never better friends and brothers than while on the Nassau.  He also was the best corpsman that ever worked for me.  We both were broken hearted when she was put to pasture.  To plagiarize your saying, "You can take the Sailor out of the Navy, but, you'll never take the Navy out of the Sailor.

  • I didn't see enough sea duty to devote enough time on SWQ; my main focus was on getting the CC's done to get Special Ops Med quals so I could get stationed at Quantico's HMX-1 flightline and the presidential reaction team.  But to this day I have never slept better than when at sea.

  • Thanks Chief for the welcome and thank you for your service to our nation. God bless you and yours

  • Thank you. I think I am going down memory lane and looking for old shipmates.

  • Thank you Chief for the welcome.  I really appreciate it.  Thanks also for your service.  My husband is a retired Msgt. from the US Air Force.  Because I did not retire and never served in any war, although very proud to have been a sailor, I have never felt like it was important.  It was to me, but I never felt like it mattered to others.  But once I found this site and realized I "belonged" with others I don't know, it really made a difference.  I am part of something all on my own.  I recently signed up for the VA medical care too and after using my husband's SSN for all those years I have had to use mine for a change. 

    Anyway, thanks again.  BTW I love the kitty - absolutely gorgeous.  Mine is a tuxedo cat.

    All the best to you and your family. 

  • Thanks Chief, it was my pleasure.

  • Thank you for your warm welcome, 

  • Thank you
