US Navy, 1958-1962. Radioman, served two years aboard USS Saint Paul CA73 (Heavy Cruiser, 8" main guns) flagship for Seventh Fleet, homeported Yokosuka, Japan. Rode out two typhoons, crossed the equator twice and went up the Saigon River to visit Saigon, South Vietnam. A heavy cruiser just isn't ideal for riverine ops.
Last year at Port Hueneme, California......liked sea duty much more.

We were in the old wood barracks on one of the last company streets before the back gate to Fountain. Our motor pool was the last, or maybe second to last, one before the gate.
Too darn cold for a Florida boy, especially going to the field in below zero weather.
