    True...My obstinate nautical terror program is specifically targeted at pinheads...not all pinheads are officers, and not all officers are pinheads! :D

    Your idea of a point paper is probably a good one..but won't be too effective..the rapid progression of risk aversion in the khaki ranks prevents petty much of anyone from getting anything interesting done...also a reason to retire..besides, I don't have a JayGee that I can shanghai into writing it at the moment..:cool:

    Did you make the Navy digital camo? If so where did you find the fabric....I am stil active duty, and can see an opportunity to aggravate some fairly stuffy officers...:twisted:

    You can get camo fabric from Rockywoods.

At least we finally have a firefighting ensemble that will protect the firefighter.

    You are correct, Chief! We should come up with a thread for squids to gripe!

    You know what they say about a griping Sailor!

    I am looking for a large Sea Bee's pin. I maybe an ET but after working with PHIB I faught to get back to the Bees when transferrred out. Now I'm back to NMCB and hoping to be with them when I get my 20+. Most of the pins I've found are to small for using.

    Now away from the Navy (sorry I derailed it) and -
