Ever had a BDU button on the waist (or sleeve) get caught up in that thing?

More times than I'd care to admit.

I remember fixing a voltage regulator on a weather deck in 25 ft seas and driving rain off the coast of Norway one night. That tried my patience.

I have painted ice haze gray so the ship would look pretty in the harbor.
Showered in a rain squall because the evaps were down, salt water showers...
Good times!


*painting ice is like trying to hold back the tide. Thanks to LT Miguel Rios for the exercise in stupidity.

When I was in, they were still handing out APCs, left over from WWII and Korea. APC= Aspirin, phenacetin, and caffeine, aka, All Purpose Capsule. Eventually had to stop as phenacetin caused kidney failure.

I don't think I was ever given those but can remember many times being given a aspirin.

@Wildman , you’ll be happy to hear even us Aviation guys had to do that.

granted it was at Bragg and we had to do all the stuff the ground guys did, so there is that.
