Re: PO has me PO'd
No- all my schools were in San Diego (Sonar Technician) but I always sailed out of Norfolk. I was on the USS John King (DDG-3) and the USS Dahlgren (DDG-43 which was formally CLG-12) and then 4 years on recruiting duty out of NRD Boston. We only came up here to Jersey to offload weapons prior to going to the shipyard for refit.

Re: PO has me PO'd
Ya, my last two ships were Aircraft Carriers and somehow I ended up in Air Dept with the wingnuts. Had to go up there when they upgraded to Flat panels for the LSO(Landing Signal Officer) displays. I was amazed at the size of the dirigible hangars. Even went over and saw the Hindenburg memorial. The school was in the Hindenburgs hangar. Thats the only time I've ever been there though. Now I'm back in my element, fixing stuff on all ships of all kinds. Even some Japanese JMSDF ships!

Hey VT, while I have your ear, have you seen a weldable bong for a 3/4" NPT. I've checked my Aeroquip catalog, both industrial and automotive and also Russels. Been to 2 Rad. shops and my local tubing and fitting guy (He' always helped me out in the last 15 yrs), but drew a blank on this one. After I get the part, then I can source out a welding shop. What happened to the days that you took you radiator problems to the radiator shop?
