Steve,
Unfortunately I was on restriction after we escorted the Newport to England. I had a GREAT time in Denmark just prior to. All those things you mentioned were hilarious though. Hope you're well. Take care Bro.

: Do you remember?
:-The Flying Scullery Brothers?
:-Capt. Kessler trying to knock down a water-tight door with his head, as we were doing a re-fueling op?
:-A Sunday morning HUMMER fire in the Tankdeck?
:-The Ship getting held up at gunpoint?
:-A Seabee getting his back broken while onloading causeways pierside and Kessler not stopping the operation to give the Seabee proper medical attention? He radioed from the Bridge "Just move him off to the side, and continue with the operation!" That's a good one!
:-The ship putting BMSA Scoggens on a Diet?
:-Docile SM2 Burge getting drunk and tearing up France?
:-The Storm? In 88 on our trip back from Denmark we ran into some unfavorable weather (we actually had a 54% roll), which Bent the bow of one of the ships we were with and the Sag had the great honor of escorting them to Plymouth, England for repairs. Great fun chaps!
