I was a radioman stationed in San Juan PR.I was yanked out of Radio A school in Bainbridge MD. and flown to Gitmo with 2 hours notice to beef up the communications net.Two weeks later the blockade went into effect.

Hey, Paul.......how come you didn't welcome me aboard?
Sal Cairo March 20, 2010 at 9:37pm

Hey Pat.....welcome aboard. don't know if you remember me, but I was a PN3, also........but stayed as the deck yeoman instead of transferring to Ops. I only had about 4 months to separation when I made 3rd class, so decided to stay with the deck crew.
