REQUEST PERMISSION TO COME ABOARD



CHARLESTOWN, Mass. (Jan. 14, 2008) The first major snowfall of the New Year blankets the USS Constitution. Despite the weather "Old Ironsides," remained open for free public tours. At 210 years-old, USS Constitution is the oldest commissioned warship afloat in the world, manned by 67 active-duty United States Sailors and visited by nearly half a million visitors annually.

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Howdy ConorMacNessa!

FIRST!!

Where was the 3/5? I was in Americal DIV 1/1 CAV, based at Hill 29 about 15 km N of Tam Ky.

Started and ended that trip at McChord. Audio going. I can still hear “The Wichita Lineman” playing over and over.

I think there’s a good possibility that the DC-8 we flew over in is on static display, SE corner of USC (LA for college baseball fans) across the street. There is, or was a DC-3 there too.

Thanks for your service!

Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...did you sally forth on this first day of the work week?

Today was a 2 hour power outage. Such fun. Trying to make up time now.
