Does the Navy even have BT's anymore? That was the favorite "cover" for your crowd in the day.
edit: evidently not, merged with MM's in 96. |

"If the Snipes don't groove, the ship don't move."
One of my more favorite sayings back 'in da day' 25 Years Navy Retired EM1 after the first two enlistments, Seabee CEC after the last four.

US Army - 1972 through 1978.
Spent the majority of my time in Europe - mostly in Germany but had 2 special assignments to NATO HQ in Belgium. Finished my 6 years with an 18 month tour at the Pentagon. That 6 years did a lot to shape me as a person. |

When I was a kid everything was closed on this day, which we call Remembrance Day here. I don't know how that ever changed.

Similar experience - made Chief Torpedoman the same year I was selected for LDO. Surface guy stuck into the submarine community as an officer. 25 years 6 months 18 days in my shadow box. I was a weapons nuke as opposed to a 'damn nuke' ...
As Wild Bill knows those first two years as an ensign were like a Chief's initiation that just wouldn't end....

Bill, I'm curious: How did they handle your pay? I'm sure a master chief makes more than an ensign. Did you take a pay cut, or was their some special circumstance in play for mustangs?

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
