Tim,
Great suggestion...I'll keep you posted. I don't plan on putting it in the water for another month. I want to install some stuff before the madian voyage.
Fred,
Thanks for your service Bro...My Dad retired off of the U.S.S. Hancock in 1964, so I like the Navy. But, I must admit, my dad was disappointed and proud at the same time when I joined the Corps...He wanted me to follow in his footsteps. My sister served 12 years in the Navy as well. I saw combat with the Navy and was very impressed with their professionalism.
Dave,
OhhRa!! Airborne...thanks for stepping into the "batters box." It's an honor to meet you . Anyway, I'm spending my retirement pulling up shrimp pots and fishing in Prince William Sound and the Pacific Northwest. I take my hat off to the RVN Vet who is on his way to Iraq, but I'm too old to hump a rucksack. Look forward to meeting you.
Semper Fi...
Mike
