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!

Read more…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!

liked that shell on deck must made those mess cranks Pee there draws . good idea keep the mess Specialist on there game/six ?
DeCota can handle it, he would just deflect it off to the port side and it would be chow as usual:)
Just what every mess deck needs - a warhead - just denotate it if the food is bad:)
Say hello to my little friend.

I was getting real short. Didn't give a rats back side about much except getting out. Went to chow one day and I spotted a cockroach on the side of the hot line. I grabbed it and said to the BOOT mess cook, " I just caught a cockroach on your hot line. What do you want me to do with it?"
This punk thought he would show me how salty he was and said, "Just throw it in the soup."
So I did. He says, with a wee bit of SHOCK in his voice, "I DIDN'T THINK YOU REALLY HAD ONE!!"
Showed his azz who was salty.
You know we had those, hit a chief once, man I caught hell.. I was aiming in another direction but it bounced off the bulkhead and hit him in the crow. Lucky me it did not stick or draw blood, although I think he wanted to, But GQ sounded and we took off like we are supposed to. Russian Trawler along side out ship..Between us and our whale boat.
"Joe's Apartment is a good on as well.
A cockrasch festival in that one!
Killing bugs...Does it ever get boring? You guys would love the movie "Starship Troopers".
Aw now you guys have bought up somethin I did @ 20 yrs ago.
Take one of those old wooden "COUNTRY MATCHES"...cut the striker part off..take a straight pin cut the head off...stick it in the end of the wooden match...on the opposite end IF you can make 2 slots (and not split the match) take either a piece of light rigid plastic or construction paper @ 3/4 or maybe 1/2" long in the slots...get a drink straw...the ones for malts work better...put the "DART" in the straw AND REMEMBER BLOW INTO THE STRAW!!!! dart should fly straight ...if not play around with different lenghts of feathers or pins
