From the Past

One of my plaques I received from the USS Henry Clay – SSBN 625 (Blue Crew) when I shipped over star (reenlisted for 6 years).

I reenlisted for the following “perks”:

• Shore duty in Pensacola, FL
• SETTS (school in Groton, CT)
• “C” School (Groton, CT)

In all, after shore duty and schools, I would have had about a year and a half left on the 6 year reenlistment.
United States Navy – 1980 to 1986. I would have retired in 2000, but, my knees had other ideas.

My 2nd boat I served on. The first was the USS Woodrow Wilson SSBN 624 (Gold crew)
