Apparently there's a new NAVADMIN trying to get everyone on their first sea duty enlistment to extend wherever they are because everyone from FY13 is either out, getting out, or about to hit shore duty.

I think it was the ironing and poo poo to not look like rear end combined with the fact that 75% of the navy is balls deep in some kind of dirty poo poo so light colors are automatically ruined. But that's just me.

vulturesrow posted:I am currently experiencing what is easily the worst port call I've had in my almost 20 years. If you're ever told you are going to India, just go ahead and lower your expectations, especially if you are on a carrier (and thus have to anchor out). Didn't even get off until I had slg the last day. I blame 3/4 of it on the ship.

vulturesrow posted:Didn't realize you were out here. This happens pretty much every time we bring a strike group to India so I can't fault the ship too much. Doesn't make it suck any less. I have at least one Sailor who didn't make it off either. Given its showing so far, it's just too unsurprising for me to not assume it played a part. GW/Reagan/CVW5 may have just set a high bar for me though.

piL posted:I've always assumed that life at places like Atsugi were just like life at neighbouring bases (ie Yoko or Sasebo--neighbouring is relative) but better. Those places like Atsugi are kinda small and quiet and most people at least end up in Yokohama as opposed to the tiny selection of local bars. I know more people that went to Ageha than Bar Skunk.

They're also planning on having EMALS on their future carrier and they're probably less concerned with development perfection so I believe it's totally real and they will deploy it before us.

Well since I now have an amc flight I decided to inquire about pet reservations. My PSs told me they totally asked me about this (They didn't) and it's too late now because of poo poo I've actually already done. Also still don't have an itinerary.
