Hey, I’m a 1%ter. Does that make me special?

 I know, I know, we here at SASS are all “SPECIAL”!

My wife says I am special. Then she follows up with a look that says “Bless yer heart”.

I logged 11 days aboard the troopships USS General Mann and 8 days aboard the USS General Mitchell before I was 8 years old - as one of two-dozen or so dependents.  The other passengers were Marines.
 

That’s how we transited the Pacific in the late ‘50s & early ’60s.

I'm the odd man out.  Did 20 years in Naval Aviation and when I retired my Sea Duty Counter was 0000. Didn't plan it that way, just how it worked out.

 

My first sea tour was with an EW aggressor squadron, VAQ-34 out of NAS Point Muga Ca and NAS Lemoore Ca. (We did a home port change when we transitioned from the ERA-3B and EA-7L to the FA-18) We deployed a lot training the fleet in anti-ship missile defense techniques.

My second sea tour was with VQ-1 (EP-3E) out of NAS Whidbey Island Wa. Deployed to Japan/Okinawa and Bahrain.

My last tour in the Navy was with a Fleet Introduction Team out of the old NAC Indianapolis at first with a home port change to NAWS China Lake. For a shore tour I spent more time on the road than I was at home.

 

BTW I have a lot of respect for those that were "Haze Gray and Under Way".

Dad was VQ-1 pilot 1958-1960 and is why we sailed to Iwakuni. Small world.

Personally, I always thought a posie - making reference to the flower - was spelled with an i e.

I remember reading years ago that this phenomenon happened a time or two during combat maneuvering in WWII.

Or when the Company Commander says “Who wants to skip PT today? Take one step forward.” Definitely a trap. 
I didn’t move. Those that did regretted it. A few fell for it twice. They didn’t graduate with us. Dumb*$$es!
