Best Moment I made Commander. I am glad the Navy selected me, and I am proud that I made it, but I am also smart enough to know a Commander in the reserves is not the same as a Commander in the regular navy.
Chain of Command William T. Chambers was a great CO.
So was CDR Pierce.
Other Memories I did two-week tours in Norfolk, several in San Diego and Hawaii, one in Omaha, one in Key West, one in Panama.
