Smoking drags with the Navy
I saw this on another site (no, not that one) and had to post it... I think this is great and the guys certainly deserve it...

That must be one very understanding Commmanding Officer, (or one who likes to fish) to not only slow down, but then to back up to get line back ont he reel. Very Cool.
Maybe that will be part of the new recruiting video for the Navy.

I posted in support of this on the "other site" and I'll do the same over here,
Any R&R these guys can get is good with me. That is a very cool CO to allow the fishing.

i was in the navy
about ten years ago and had always wanted to give it a shot but our commanding officer would have nothing to do w/ it. not even off the sponsons in port. its good to see that those guys get a little slack. i was on a carrier so maybe that had something to do with it, alot more crewmembers.

I was stationed on a DDG Guided Missile Destroyer out of Pearl Harbor from 1983-1987, we used to troll for Mahi-Mahi and tuna off of the fantail, when taking a break from training maneuvers. It was great fun and good for moral, the cooks onboard would then prepare it for dinner. Pretty funny to be trolling for fish using a 100+ million dollar battle ship.... |
