in 06, did a deployment with the USS Alexandria as a CTT. I'm 6'4", and I found just 2 places I could stand up straight. haha I developed Tendonitis in both knees, and had an even tougher time dealing with my job and chief. My hats off to those who can survive it.

I trained our air guys to find and destroy the bad guys' subs. Of course that was back in the 50's. I was amazed when the book "Hunt for Red October" came out to find how similar things still were.

Submarine Rescue
From 1981- 1986 on USS Florikan(ASR-9) escorting and towing submarines when needed. Also did alot of diving with SRC Chamber for the old 637 class and 688 class sub rescue. 1991-1992 USS Pigeon(ASR-21) decommissioned which carried the DSRV between to two hulls. Also was on tug boats at Subbase Bangor Washington for 4 years as a chief engineer pushing around SSBN's, and now I work on these submarines. And I respect what these young men do on a daily bases when they are out on patrol. WHOO RAHH
