Oh, yes. That station is on my list. Apparently there's another 378 in Kodiak, so I intend to put that one at the top. The Munroe. Big ships are cool, and, also, you get much street cred in the Guard from doing time on one or two. Plus, now that I consider it, being at a boat station sounds extremely boring. You don't go anywhere or even do much. I like being underway. You go cool places, and also, have opportunity to sleep when not on watch. I don't get to sleep much in port. I have no desire to go to an ISU. I might go insane from boredom.

What’s an ISU? And what are you going to do if a 175 mph typhoon blows you all the way to Vladivostok? You don’t speak a word of Russian!

Anyway, the article says there are only 20 personnel there. Do you really want to be posted someplace with 19 people who think you’re nuts?
