I was also in the Navy but just did a 4 year enlistment 80-84. Served on the USS Juneau LPD 10.
I was in 78-98. I was on the USS Mars (AFS 1) 78-82. We may have sailed and possibly unrepped together. We sailed with an amphib task group that did a mock assault in the island of Masirah. Does that sound familiar?
