[Tommyknocker]

Thank you very much guys. That is CPO (E-7).

[i_am_dave]

I guess you are a lifer, right?

[fmctm1sw]

I guess you are a lifer, right?

I guess so. Unless I win the lottery or something. It's really the only thing I know after 12 years of doing it... well, other than making crappy CVD's. Hell, even my kids complained!

[gmatov]

Congrats!!!

Chief what?

I'm assuming you're some kind of ET, being here.

I wore a gear on my sleeve 40 years ago. ( Shows anyone can get something from this site, even someone with oil in his veins.)

Cheers,

So would you be the equivalent of Casey Rybeck in Under Seige. Top a few terrorists whilst whipping up a crepe sousette.

Congrats

Have you seen Steven Segal recently, looks like he has put on about 4 stone (56 pounds)

[gmatov]

At least!!

Just saw him the other night, newer one, forget the name, hell, forget the plot. He kinda shambles like an old man in it, also.

The Siege movies were about the best he's made since he got into the save the world stage, where he does all his preaching.

[Craig Tucker]

Yea, at his peak, I suppose the era of unders seige his fight scenes did stand out from other movies. The guys he was hitting really looked like they were being hit. Quite sad to see him now really.

[tgpo]

He was in some made for TV movie on TBS the other month. Wow was the acting bad. I think my kung fu movies looked better than it....and that isn't saying much.

Thanks George. I'm actually a CTM, almost 13 years service.

[gmatov]

Chief,

Sorry, either my memory or a new MOS. What's a CTM?

And for MSO, I was on one, Mine Sweep, Ocean. Nice little wooden "boat ".

Are you on ship or shore?

TGPO,

The Foreigner, that's the one I mentioned up above, way below par.

A CTM used to be a "Teleman" (says my uncle) but that was years ago. It's crytologic technician maintenance. Kind of like an ET as far as what we do... I just completed an instructor tour down here in Pensacola.

Im up in the Pacific Northwest (Bangor) attached to a unit in Squadron 17.
Are you staying in Florida or do you have follow on orders yet? Talked to my detailer and my options seem to be a bit limited. Apparently there is nothing CONUS So im gonna wait it out a bit and see what comes open. Who knows, maybe we'll run into each other. Are you an SS, AW, or SW?

Take care,
DBZ
