Geez, I was promised 30 years hard labor if I published something like Navy Communications Technician - My Favorite Submarine Message Traffic.

I imagine there is a little ‘tongue in cheek’ here^^, BUT, I went to IB in 57 for “R” between not liking etc, was sent to an APA in AUG 57.

I found out many years later (after doing some research on ships I was stationed on) that no less than 6 other people from IB went aboard the same and ended up in the same Radio Shack as RM’s....and never once had a conversation about it till I discovered the data.

To this day I don’t ‘discuss’ what we ‘did’ in school or what the mission was - unless the person was in the same field, we may feel each other ‘out’ etc....

Don’t know if we took the ‘Secret/TS’ roll over zealously, were just taught you were no better than your word, or had heavy jail sentences over our heads.

Probably a combination of all 3.....<:
