My name is Phil Mercuri. I was assigned to company 130 and was Squad Leader #4. Is there anyone out there who was part of my company. Our Flag Bearer's name was Hillary Wong. Unfortunately, I do not remember anyone else. Though I do believe there was on other individual named Ace Goodman. I could be wrong.

..in Company 013, from January to March of 1985...G.G. Steihl was our CC....
1984-85 Company 253 under PO1 Robinson. Stayed in San Diego for MS A school until March 85. Next 3.5 years in NTTC/NAS Meridian, Mississippi where I ran the BEQ as an MS3. Went into USNR in 89 at NAVMARTRACEN Knoxville, TN. in Fleet Hospital 11. Left USNR in 1996.
Adrian, metal trays banging was like the quote from Appocolyps Now" the smell of napalm in the morning".
The guys who didn't care for the ambiance were working on the sterilizer. Us guy serving kept them in ice cream and pie most of the time. The only place I was stationed that didn't have trays was in Tokyo, We sat 4 men to a table with dishes and were served, just get up and leave when done.
In boot camp mess hall, and everywhere else I was stationed, we always enjoyed our meals on those metal trays. And the sounds of metal utensils banging on metal trays, always added a little ambiance to our dinning experience. Yes?

Can help but to ask "why"? As stated previously..I am certain that down his line someone in the family will really appreciate that their ancestor served with pride! Go Navy Beat Army everyday!
