Check out this highlight reel from a USMMA midshipman’s summer Sea Year with Military Sealift Command on board the USNS Joshua Humphreys.

Gives you pride in what the young folk of America are accomplishing. You hear so much of the negative.

One of my favorite high school teachers was a USMMA graduate.

Spent the night aboard an AOR cross-decking from my CV to a CG to teach a new AAW tactic my air wing was using. Nice staterooms, connecting heads, great chow, best movies. If ya’ gotta be at sea, not a bad way to go.

Unreps...:)

I don’t miss the USN per se, but I do miss seeing the ocean and the ships.

Beats the hell out of a Fram tin can.
