To be clear
"There is no crying in baseball." that applied to my career on submarines, my current job and the people there who have my back and me their's and this forum in general. However, reflecting back on some of my posts over the last several months, there comes a time to do the right thing and that time is now for this instance. You see Suhiir asked for my opinion, advice and recommendations for issues concerning the CORPS (A scary proposition in it's own right, I mean cmon it's that whole NAVY vs marine thing-oops should've made that all caps as well!?!) I could've politely bowed out but said I would be glad to help.
So Suhiir please accept my apologies. If you will allow it, I would be glad to finish what we started.
Don you are correct in your assessment, CINCLANTHOME and I have been through a lot (Right from the start married, pregnant 2 months later (That Dec. evening a couple of weeks before Christmas she tells me the great news and I respond like everyone husband would by saying... "How did that happen!?!" absolutely true!
) six weeks later I'm deploying (My avatar picture.) for seven months to the North Atlantic and Med to play underwater tag and hide n seek with the Soviets. That command was very special to us even though I was deployed 89% of the time over four+ years. And we're still hanging in there almost 28yrs. later. This is who I am and I'm a little adrift from that person now-
thank you Don again your right.
After I tidy up a bit around here, I think it's time not to turn out the lights but dim them down somewhat.
Regards,
Pat
P.S. Oh never mind but, rest assured when
all the lights come back on, the room won't be empty!
