I'm an ex-bubblehead (James Madison 627 G), sailed out of Holy Loch back in the early 70's. One of my skippers was Max Aiken out of Oklahoma. the skipper was an Oklahoma cowboy and had a wild streak in him. He wanted to show the Commodore he could park our boat without tugboat aid. I'll never forget pulling in off patrol, 2 tugs around us, blowing their horns, Aiken on the bridge refusing any help, but he got her parked.
I was on 2 bommers I was a IC2 (SS) Spent 7 years in went on USS ANDREW JACKSON and USS STONEWALL JACKSON had a lot of good time and a few bad times I do miss those half way nights!!!
