Brothers, never forget those years at sea standing watch up at the plot. Midwatch seastories, diving in high currents, chart shifts, position reports, foggy nights on the surface, OOD's from hell, rigging the bridge in high seas in the dark or rain, numb drink runs, favorite dividers and pencils, piloting in liberty ports excited and piloting out hungover. Good times, bad times....our time.

Logged over 80k miles aboard the USS Harlan R. Dickson in the late Sixties as a QM2. What a great adventure. I was offered OCS and a commission to "reup," however, I left to pursue a career writing software. I really missed the sea [not so much the military], to keep my sealegs I went sailing and diving as often as possible.

Nice to see SOMEONE is taking the time to acknowledge what a great rate we share. There's not another career in the Navy I'd rather have than that of a professional navigator. Let's get nautical!

Served as QM3 on submarine tender USS ORION in Charleston, SC (SUBRON 4) 1973-1975.
Not much for a QM to do on a ship that rarely went to sea, but I enjoyed my time there.
