Best Moment Getting married to my wife of almost 20 yrs. The birth of my daughter. Being nominated as Jason's Senior Petty Officer of the Year as a HT1 (Didn't win, but coming in second is still a great honor)! Getting promoted to HTC! Receiving the Navy and Marine Corp Achievement Medal for my performance during Operation Desert Storm. Playing softball and partying with all my friends!
Worst Moment Not really any that I can think of at the moment.
Other Memories The partying and such during my three deployments while onboard. The challenges of supervising one of the larger repair shops onboard (Pipe Shop). Being member of DCETT. First playing on the Argonauts softball team (At one time, ship had two softball teams), and then playing for the combined ship's team. We had some great times playing softball, even won the San Diego Naval Station Championship one year. Helped that one of our players was also on the All Navy softball team. Desert Shield/Desert Storm.
