At Naval Gunfire School, spring of ‘87, my class had the privilege of calling fire for the USS Missouri, prior to decommission; I think she retired in the early ‘90s. 16 inch cannon rocks! Mighty Mo! It’s all 5” guns, and missiles now:-(

Tried my damnedest to get to 2nd ANGLICO at LeJeune, but the slots to jump school were going to reservists....they could spend only x amount of days on active duty.
