Summary
This is my memoir of my very short Navy career. I did a 4-year hitch in the service of this Great Nation. I was privileged to serve with a Navy of like-minded individuals proudly serving their country. It just so happened that funny, strange, and awesome incidents occurred on a regular basis.
I wanted to start with the circumstances that led up to my enlistment. In boot camp a fellow recruit took advantage of my gullible nature and roped me into a moneymaking scheme. I went to Tennessee for eight months before I went to Pensacola, Florida for a quick six-month school. Then on to North Island in San Diego, CA. I had two more training schools to complete before settling into my permanent duty station, HSL-31 a Helicopter squadron. I volunteered to go on two six-month cruises in the South Pacific. When I got out of the Navy, I drove an old jalopy from San Diego to Kentucky which led to a hilarious episode in Denver!
