You sir, are apparently a Barbers Point VP sailor. Me too. When were you there? Blue Sharks here. ‘70-74.

Ah, a VP-6 sailor.
I was still going through SERE school when you were over there, but not far behind.

That early, you would have been in the A's, and maybe some early B's.
VP-1 Eagles here. IFT, Crew Five, then Crew One after I got my act together.

You're the guys we used to steal avionics from when preflighting the Ready Alert, when supply couldn't keep us... well, supplied.
It's been nearly forty years, so I guess the statute of limitations has run out.
Heh.

Good to hear from you - and anyone who remembers the old Dodge, before it got "civilized".
