Comments : I served aboard the mighty vree for med cruise 1-86, legal ops, and many other hops with the best crew in the navy. I began my career with her and ended it as well. I found this site by pure dumb luck. This site has brought back alot of memories, Like Mr. King who gave me the chance to prove myself in 2nd division, Jim Turske who became my best friend and mentor, and GMGC Smith and GMG1 Keith Jurnegan, GMG1 Roger White, FC2 Forrestal,GMG3 Snead, GMM2 Stacy Harris, BM1 Bakos, and so many others, I hope you are all doing well in your new endeavors.
