I served in the Navy, a plankowner aboard the USS BOSTON (SSN-703) Decommissioned in 1999 and scrapped in 2002. Now I find myself in the unique cradle-to-grave position of helping to care for its remains at the Buffalo & Erie County Naval & Military Park. All that really remain are the sail and rudder shipped here in 2003 along with a few cleats. I feel like I'm caring for a vessel that met a premature and untimely demise. Now I care for her remains.
...Sort of.

Hahaha! It's what some guys aboard the boat would do just to say they slept with a little pussy each night while underway.
ReplyDeleteMeow! What do you mean?
ReplyDeleteDid they have stuffed animals when I was in the navy? I think you had to inflate the little buggers.
