Daydreaming About Being Back at Sea Again

If you read this blog you know about my Navy background.

I never served on a carrier, but lots of my friends did.

Guy Kawasaki (of Apple Computer fame) made me a little homesick for the two cruisers I served aboard (both of which no longer exist – victims of the end of the cold war) by writing “the longest posting in the history of blogging.”

I’ll be daydreaming about the USS Arkansas and the USS Long Beach…

USS ARKANSAS – CGN-41

(WOW! This is real. Shock Testing – I left for the Long Beach about one month before this.)

USS LONG BEACH – CGN-9

Of course, the “nuclear” part of the Nuc Navy isn’t pictured. It’s “classified” and below the waterline.
