Best Moment As prior service was immediately assigned to the 3rd Naval District Brig in the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Worked from the disbursing office as a courier.
Worst Moment Learned that the courier pouch contained the cash payroll and that the previous three sailors who were couriers were all mugged and robbed.
Instructors Up to four hash marks seamen recruits.
Other Memories Incorrect scoring of my language aptitude test...meaning I was not selected for language training.
