    I crossed the first time while a member of VA-172 aboard the USS Franklin D Roosevelt (CVA-42) at 12:00 noon on July 4, 1966 (Star Spangled Shellback) enroute to the Gulf of Tonkin. Recrossed the equator January 22, 1967 on the way home to NAS Cecil Field, Jacksonville, FL.

    My 2nd time crossing was with the USS New Jersey (BB - 62) IN 1979, USS Arkansas (CGN - 41) IN 1981 & USS Mount Hood (AE - 29) in 1989 & 1990. I was a Shellback then, so the Wogs were in trouble, but it was fun.
