Memories For This Unit

Best Friends
Mark Rodocker - another Preble refugee

Best Moment
MK-12 Diving system testing in Pokai Bay. All the single guys were put up in Schofield Barracks where this junior PO3 got a room designated for 2 Army E-6's to himself.

Working at Alpha docks on Hickam Air Force base. Nobody bothered us there and I got used to the base and island by being Duty Driver, driving the 5/4 ton truck all over.
   

Worst Moment
Painting the fresh water tanks on the barge, YRST-1

Chain of Command
Some mustang CAPT I can't remember
   

Other Memories
Was TAD to this unit while my ship, the USS Preble was stuck in San Diego with some Fireroom problems. This was some GREAT duty!
