Wow. Hehe, I'll bet they ran around when that anchor went. We were in Souda Bay and the Kennedy lost it's main anchor. You can imagine the hate and discontent that engendered. The entire chain parted at the bitter end. They did a recovery on that chain, for sure.
Thanks for your stories...I have a huge amount of respect for tin can sailors.

You ever get up to MA and we can go out for a few.....
Being sailors I'm sure we won't run out of stories. There are several on this thread. I'm sure wyattearp has some great ones. EWs tend to be some of the more whacked out people in the Navy :)
