The Goat Locker CPO Deck Log
Thank you for visiting the Goat Locker. Glad to have you aboard. If you would like to add a entry to the Deck Log, please feel free to sign the Goat Locker Deck Log. After you sign the Deck Log I will manually add your entry to this page. This keeps the hackers/spammers from posting anything here. Every couple months this Deck Log is moved to a file and a link is available for them via email. This keeps the size of this file down which makes it easier to load and it keeps the entries secure. To even further help keep entries secure from SPAM I have added a "2" after every @ symbol in each email address. So if you go to email someone remove the "2" from the address. Old Deck logs are available back to 1993.

Comments: I will never forget my initiation into the chiefs mess. It started before the 9/11 attacks while onboard Theodore Roosevelt. We still had our "night" on time. We were not going to let the terorists make us change our lives. Then we deployed and stayed at sea for 159 days in a row. It was a record for a carrier since WWII. Those days may have been forgotten by some but I will never forget them.

Comments: I was really proud to know that I was selected. I honestly did not get the induction process for the first two weeks because of some family issues but once I need that things were okay as far as the issue, I was on board and really enjoyed the entire process. I was broke and couldn't run but enjoyed the daily PTs, early morning wake ups and the late to bed. The taskers were sometimes silly but I put in all my efforts to get the team work going. Wow! how hard it is for ten people to agree on things and get them done! We survived that and made it through the night of without incident. I cannot go a day without thanking my God for the blessings, my family for the support and coping with the time away from home. My friends and co-workers, my Sailors who trusted in me and my awesome sponsors who showed me the ropes. This is what makes the Navy chief great and proud. NAVY CHIEF -- NAVY PRIDE

Comments: When I was a selectee I can honestly say that I was going through mixed emotions. I was proud that I was selected, I was nervous because I wasn't sure if I was going to be a good Chief and I wasn't sure if I was deserving of this great honor. But once Induction was over. I was proud to see my entire Chief's Mess in attendance at the pinning. Mind you 95% of them was at the entire final night. I was pinned by my family, my sponsor put my cover on me and at that point I knew I wasn't going to be just a good Chief. I am going to be a great Chief because of the people I have around me and most of all because of the Mess I have. The Red Wolf CPO Mess is by far the best and most caring mess there is. I know this because so many former Red Wolves from the past have told me this and I must agree. From the time I got pinned there has not been a day I am not proud to be the Chief. I look forward to what the future brings and leading my Sailors.
