Comments: Several nagging questions have been bothering me for some time, maybe some of the more mature minds in like situations might have some answers. The US dollar is recognized in trade world wide, what would happen to the value of the dollar if another currency were to replace the dollar?. With the trillions and trillions of printed US dollars, would the dollar be devalued?. Would this trigger mega inflation? How come we tolerate this zero interest rate?. It is robbing us of our deserved reward for being conservative and saving for the future, for our childrens education and other special purposes. Our IRA's are slowly eroded whereas in the past interest helped prolong their demise. Remember when those in power wanted every household to save 10 percent of their earnings?. Now it's live from payday to payday, spend, spend. This is directed to those receiving military retirement pay, SSI, and maybe distribution from an IRA. Have more but will wait to see if there are any response from th is inquiry. Been around awhile, since 1933s

Comments: It was a privilege and an honor to have served with the men and women of the US Navy Seabees for a period of 30 years stretching from 1976 to 2006. That period contained some of the most memorable events in my life and produced friendships that are so very valuable to me. I would love to hear from my shipmates who also served in those commands during that period especially fellow chiefs from NMCB27 during the late 80's and 90's.

Comments: With everything that was instilled in us doing the season, I come away with knowing that none of us made it here on our own. It takes a person with great pride in what they do, setting the standards and maintaining them, being fair but firm, not only holding others accountable, but yourself as well.Integrity and accountability is what make good men and women better. Always reach out to the mess when in doubt, you will not be misguided.

Comments: Not sure if this is the proper place to discus this subject but anyway here goes. In 2009 while attending the USS Collett DD730 reunion in San Diego I attempted to take a few of my old shipmates who had not made the Navy a career to the Chief's club. was thinking the 32nd street club. While making inquiries I was informed Chief's clubs no longer existed. What a disappointment. My question is: When were they eliminated(closed), by what authority and what was the reasoning?.

After finally retiring in 2006, I went to Baghdad, Iraq for a year as a contractor, where I ran the Lock Shop at the U.S. Embassy. It was quite an experience.

Comments: Brothers and Sister, It's a great day at sea today, here in the Arabian Gulf, and I figured today would be as good as any day to come and finally sign the deck log. I donned these anchors in 2014, so they are still pretty shiny, and not as salty as some of yours, but this year I hit 20 years in the Navy, so, although my anchors are not too salty, my oars are. These anchors will continue to get salty as time goes on. Not a lot to say right now, and the work on the deckplates are calling my name, but I just wanted to take the time to sign the deck log. Sail easy my Brothers and Sisters, and don't forget to say a prayer for calm seas and smooth storms so that those at sea, safely come home to their families.
