Silly OS's I was an ETJust a run of the mill Navy Wife. OS in the surface fleet. He got out in 2006 and it has been nice to have him home after being more out to sea than home for 12 years.

I bet he thinks it's nice to be home more often than not... Although occasionally it was nice to be at sea
Still no seabees? I used to run into you guys all the time. Where are you now?
I am not gonna say anything. I know he must miss those trips out to sea when things here get crazy. I saw a little sign the other day that said "Raising kids is like being slowly pecked to death by chickens!" Heck there were times that I wished I could go out to sea.
Although I did go on 6 of those family cruises, and by the end of the day I was ready to get off the ship and back to land. I couldn't imagine being confined on one of those for months at a time in the heat of the Arabian Gulf. 3 were on a frigate and the other 3 were on an Aegis Destroyer. Maybe the ships were just too confining?
I did know an EO henderson. Most anyone who was in MBC 62 during 1968-1972 knew me. I was in a Rock Band and played at our base and other Army, Marine Corp and Air Force bases in Viet Nam. I was in B Company. My rate was Shipfitter 2nd class. I was a fleet rate, but served with the CB's my whole 4 years. I will check My cruise book, but I'm sure I know your Dad.
I'm sure I knew an EO3 Henderson in A company. it is a small world. My son Chris (GSXTacy) on the org, was born while we were deployed the second time to camp hoover Danang, Viet nam.I'll talk with him tomarrow and see if he knows ya, that would be cool if you guys know each other.
