'85-'89. Started off on a 378 in Boston, 180' bouy tender in Woods Hole, Then finished off at Castle Hill in Newport. I was an mk3(boat engineer) and at sm boat stations that means I was a boarding officer too. Mostly good experiences, the best part was that I worked with some great people, but Crow's right about the powers that be.- You can find all that out for yourself.
But overall, the good outweighed the bad, and I look back on it as a good experience- a good place to grow up.
Good Luck, Let us know how you make out
