“ That was my ship from about 1981 to 1983. She was based in Alameda, Ca.”

I was on her 81-85. Were you there when we got stuck in the mid in S.F. Bay?

Yes, I was. I was a Supply Petty Officer, and in addition I was a Short-timer, preparing to leaving the service in a few months. I don’t recall many details, except there was a lot of speculation on who’s fault it was, and on how long it would take before we could be done with this event, one way or another. I just wanted to go off the ship, on liberty that evening.
That is all I wanted.
