This is a veritable font of salty knowledge! Now a request: can either of you Victory vets send me a mint-condition postcard of the ship, mailed in an envelope? If so, I will give it a place of honour in the display I'm arranging on the LT. Bush Quarterdeck, for all the world to see. I'll send a ...

Too bad they santised the stories; that's half the fun! The Constitution is manned by a crew of about 50 active duty personnel (shorthanded due to the war), which now includes females. My tattoos are older than most of these squids. They serve a 1 or 2 year tour, then off to the fleet. The CO is a ...
