| Message | USN from 1958 to 1961 then USNRR into 1964. Inlisted as EFSR as E1; advanced to E2 out of basic; E3 out of RM 'A' school; E4 after year at NAVCOMSTA SD; then to E5 while at Midway Is. in 1961. Never stood a successful radio watch--taking code and doing another task, like actually reading it was beyond my capability, so I worked at jobs that normally would be assigned to an ET. Told the turkeys when they assigned me to RM school that I had flunked the clerical part of the testing at boot camp. But, no...EFSR to RM in one easy 'Navy Way' goof-up. But, what the heck. Got married to a WAVE at NAVCOMSTA and she is still with me.  |
