Memories For This Unit

Best Friends
BTCM John Armstrong MMC(SW) Francis Maclaughlin HMC "Doc" Jewell MM2 Pat Woodrome 

Best Moment
Having MM2 Pat Woodrome tell me he wouldn't reenlist but he would extend for the length of time I had left on board. Being one of the first 50 people in the USN to be awarded the ESWS designation based on merit not a command hand out.
