My Naval Years







When someone thanks me for serving I swell up and say something like "Oh shucks!" or "Somebody had to."

Here is a summary of my photo collection during my Navy years:  
Bourbon Street, New Orleans


Al Hirt Club, New Orleans.  I got to stand outside and listen to Al blow his horn rehearsing
.

Me Greenwich Village, NYC

Me swinging like Tarzan into the lake at Carmel, NY





Don Lash showing off his black eye a Marine gave him the night before at the E.M. Club

Don Lash with Empire State Building

Dick Day and I exorcising a pot in front of an antique store in New Hope, Pa

Me playing like I am a real Bell Helicopter pilot

Our barracks.  Don Lash is flattened on the ground with books around him at my direction.  I am up near the top of a water tower.


Our Barracks temporarily mascot, a snow woman with boobs and a Bud.
