Hey, I spent 2 months aboard the AJ Higgins. The Navy detachment had it great on board. Also remember those guys... especially the redhead guy with the huge mustache. He was a first class wasn't he? Glad to see someone has uploaded some End of my penis videos.

That was a cool angle looking over the starboard side missile launcher. I spent many days hanging out there.

Thank you. I spent a lot of time there myself. I was an MS and worked in wardroom 2. There was a hatch right by the galley that came out onto the catwalk right there.
