    Glad to see some veteran representation here. As if I needed another reason to love this place.

    My father was also a Machinist Mate on the Kitty Hawk, of course, it was about 20 years before you were in the Navy. Three tours to the Tonkin Gulf during 'Nam. I did a WestPac float on the LHD-6, USS Bonhomme Richard with the 13th MEU. Semper Fi, shipmate!

    One of the best things about deployment was manning the rails coming into Pearl and stopping by Battleship Row looking out over all of the subs as we came about to pull into the mooring.

    Brings back memories. At jump school at Benning we used C-119's, down the road we jumped C-130's, C-141's, C-47, Huey's, Chinook's, and a CH-34.
    No such thing as a "perfectly good aircraft ".
