Enlisted or not! This room is for everyone!

All are welcome to join this group!

I just thought there should be a place anyone who served at any time at any command could go and throw out a thought, ask a question or gripe!

  • Just had another pet scan today and while I was in the tube, I must have fallen asleep because I could see several old sailors having chow and talking about what great time they were having. I don't know which ship they were on. My wife said" how many pills did I take" before going in.
  • Thanks, I hope I can  be a good shipmate in the Enlisted Mess. I am a AK 1 and worked with some wonderful guys, during my 22 years on Honorable Service. Thanks so Much, for your Naval Service.

  • I never did "hazy gray and under way" I did O.D green and was a dirt sailor "Seabees" but my dad was a tin can sailor and I posted some pictures that he took while he was in. Oh David you forgot one of J.W's best films "The Fightin Seabees"

  • I added two of my ships to the command section Uss Norris & Uss Claud jones de1033 . Uss Willard Keith dd 775 was already there.
  • It's been a while! So, I am just posting this to bring this thread back to the top of the pile. So, we can get more of the newer members in here and adding to the chatter!

  • There will be smoke on the water when the Navy takes down the emeny
  • The mess deck was a gathering stop for the crew to watch all those great movies we had. Mess deck was used when we could not use the fantail
  • David, did you see that another vet from Wasilla signed up! His name is Alden Weiss. Wasilla is becoming a Navy town!

  • Amen to that!!

  • They have saved all our bacons more than once or twice!

I'm wondering if we can use this forum and not have people get lost!

I have been informed by our CO, Mr Karr that these forums may work a little better than the "comments" section. So, I am going to try an experiment and see if we can do some house cleaning in this command! Excuse me! Sorry, I meant swab the deck!Somehow the comments have reversed themselves and the most recent comments show up at the end instead of the beginning.We have to be supportive of Doug these days as the site seems to be experiencing a growth spurt, which is good!
