They know they are doing something wrong something bad so when Dems come like little bullies they run and hide if it looks like they’ll get caught doing wrong.

... Main Side for "A" school and Nuclear Prep School.

Then 'A' school in Great Lakes (in fall/early winter).
Wished it was the other way 'round!
So, the base is going to become a detention center? Sickening.

... and built a new chow hall and barracks in the nineties.

They'll never turn it into a detention center. What 'A' school - machinist mate, engine mans, gunners mate, ET ... ? Remember the Strip out in front of the main gate? I was there in '72.

I missed you by a year. I was there at the end of '73 -- maybe left in Feb '74?

... retired. I went off to New London and Sub School Nov 73.

Fannon was one of the coolest dudes I met in boot camp and he also came from Akron. Once we were walking up to school and there was a JG on a bike with a brief case in in left hand. "Watch this." he said. He stepped from the sidewalk onto the curb and snapped of the prettiest salute you ever saw. The JG took his right hand off the handle bars to salute back and crashed in the street. The BT school was next to the MM, Engineman the other side of MM.

What we would do to keep from saluting. Pop covers and brush our hair back, get out of range at the last second, there were times when LG and Lts would walk right at us trying to vector us into salute range and if we had four of us we'd march to their oblique. If not we'd make a more acute angle of course. Or drop and tie our shoes.

Gawd I loved the Zumwalt Navy.

When my four years were up, I had to take my discharge papers up the Chain of Command to be signed by each officer. Each officer is supposed to give a re-enlistment speech -- NOBODY gave me a speech, just signed my papers. Apparently, four years was enough for me AND for the Navy!
I'm happy to be a Veteran -- much like someone who was in prison is happy to be an EX- con!

... meet some people I still think about. But I needed out, I was fortunate I was able to pick my civilian life up pretty much intact.

It taught me how to stand to in any situation.

... going on at home. The last three or four days was a blur and I never got the chance to get digits. Ran into a guy from boot camp in Akron a few years later, but I am no degenerate drinker and he was world class. I do miss Bill Fannon and I have no evidence he came back to Akron, Tony DeLuca became a White House Honor Guard and I lost track of him when he went to DC.

Then on to “C” school in Damneck, VA.

Many theories. I believe it was the grease trap.

... finally the Navy investigators found her by bringing in a dog. What place was built by the lowest bidder. And showed it. But the food was good. Specially the fresh baked stuff for breakfast.

I was there for boot in '65 and IC "A" school in '66, and BOTH times the scrambled eggs were like runny snot when it was ladled onto the tray. There were so many boots, and future submarine "Non-Qualified Pukes" (NQP) to feed, they didn't have time to cook the snot until it firmed up, we just sort of ate and drank the scrambled as is. And don't even ask how runny the over easy fried eggs were.

You know damn well the food was never good until you got on the submarines with us. The New York Sirloins with fried onions and mushrooms at any time of day you wanted it. Just had to clean up your own mess which was no problem.

And the steak smell from the grill helped knock down the diesel fuel mist in the aft battery mess.

... no one believes me when I tell them you got to eat what you pretty much wanted, steaks, lobster tails, subs was good duty. Better bunks, no hot bunking, good lighting, paneling on the bulkheads, acoustic on the overhead, tile on the deck. If you needed a bigger view, the missile room was as big or bigger than a basket ball court, with a 20ft overhead. They just don't believe it. AND we get sleep very close to nuclear reactors and whatever missiles are in the tube. Loved it until I didn't so much. Just don't know how or why I did it, but I don't want to do it again.

In a lot of ways it was like living in our parents' rec room, except for the valve turning and gauge logging. Great place to get up a game of spades. People got along a lot better than in the surface fleet. People took their jobs very seriously.

Chase it down with bug juice and bilge water coffee. Those were the days!

Sooooo cold.

... a friend of mine from high school was there in '68. He got caught down in Mayfair smoking pot. Got reassigned to a Marine company got to run with them 5:30am every morning and form up with them. Then got to catch a plane to Da Nang. Came back in one piece just fine.

... eom.

Give Bernie masks to all undocumented immigrants.

because everything they're doing is perfectly legal.

/s

TACO session to me.

2 years from now. That won't work 3 years from now.There will be no where to run.

Leave no stone unturned. Never again

If they’re so proud of all their ides for change, why don’t they stand still and defend them? Instead they run.

GRAPE LAKES NAVAL TRAINING CENTER is what we called it in the ‘60s.

It is/was boot camp for new recruits, and “A” School to be an electrician or machinist mate. There are/were many WWII era barracks like for housing recruits/anti-Trump prisoners.

I say that way too many times a day lately.

They are locked out and given little, if any, information about what the military or any other branch is doing.

This is a defacto war against Democrats.

I suggest that the Democratic party start treating this as the war that it is.

who is expert in psyops and countering it as well as being experienced in selective application of that as part of our strategy.

It is way past too late. My guess after watching the enabling and lack of urgency the last 10 years, is they will continue doing the same ineffective shit they have done.

being run by the federal government at any time. It is written into law. They should go back with bolt cutters and inspect that facility, whatever the hell it is.

So they wont.

Just be there every morning so that they literally cannot open the gates without the two of them waltzing in.

They won't, but I wish they would.

Trumpies

Especially Duckworth. That woman is as bad ass as they come. Do NOT fuck with Tammy Duckworth, ICE. You will live to regret it!

... the corruption from here. These people are evil down to their DNA.
