My experiences were almost always: seals around other seals are bad, seals on their own were generally pretty cool.

The Trident guys were pretty fun to party with unless you ran into the one TL that was way too hyped and would get weird. Everyone else was super mellow and would joke about their stupid/dead celebrities. OS has been experiencing chills and other symptoms now. For some reason the 2nd mate spent the last two days asking me to get the reefer to look at his thermostat (I can't send him into the OS' cabin) or get him a space heater like his cabin is too cold or some poo poo. Doubtful the company can relieve anyone in Hawaii without a miracle so anyone that tests positive/has symptoms is simply a -1 to crew until we hit the USWC.

Only two positive covid tests and everyone else is negative. On the other hand my chief has abandoned the ER, is awake from 0000-1200ish, spends his time drinking, and continuously starts sentences with "I'm going to be a little politically incorrect...".

I know it’s late, but I’m gonna confirm soft serve ice cream being called “autodog” back in the day. Source: mid 90’s, USS Kitty Hawk. And yes the name was in reference to the product resembling a swirly spirally dog poop. Here’s a question: Does the USCG have missions and deployment far from the continental U.S.? Someone I work with is the mom of some kid just getting out of the Coast Guard after not making E5 and she was talking about him trying unsuccessfully to get deployed to Bahrain. I know there’s drug interdiction stuff but I thought the USCG mission was primarily domestic as the name implies?

The wardroom didn’t have its own ice cream machine? What was the point of having such big ships then if not gaudy luxury?

They are volunteer only and once you complete a tour you get #1 pick for follow up unit or A school. Officers also have some billets in Europe and some enlisted in UK and Saudi Arabia, but not a whole bunch.

It's still a small amount of people though. I've had orders to both the UK and Bahrain. There are also several postings in Asian countries and a BM E7+ posting in China

Finally popped the cork on my deployment re-watch of Battlestar Galactica, which I haven't seen since before I joined. This wacky-rear end rank structure has got me triggered. Still the best frackin' show on TV.

A normal Chu-Hi from the store is about 1.5% alcohol, therefore I can slam 10 of these and go into a sugar coma before getting drunk. A Chu-Hi Strong or a bar made Chu-Hi is a Chu-Hi, therefore...

I'm curious who's running Old Man Chu-Hi stand since Old Man passed away last year. I only went there once or twice since that was in the Honch, and Officers DO NOT go into the Honch unless it's to the Texan for Karaoke.

No one goes into the Honch when you have pozzies on board, because you're restricted to base! Also this:  Caaaaaaaarl!
