I won a jackpot on a slot machine at the United Seaman's Service bar in Pusan, Korea in 1976, where I met two Australian girls on vacation

We had a couple of steak and lobster cookouts on the fantail in the middle of the Pacific
the food on the ship was usually okay

Funny thing happened one time on the Saipan. We had a trouble call for the reefer unit in the chief's mess. It was an easy fix, but half a dozen lobster tail somehow slipped into our tool buckets on the way out. When we were at sea, there were 2K Marines aboard, so we cooked a lot of our meals in the shop due to the long lines on the mess deck. It's amazing what you can cook in a modified 30 cup coffee pot.

Were you in "A Gang"?
I've been on ships that had both good & bad.
Some of the worst were simply can openers and fry cooks.

I had built models of some of those when I was young. Beautiful aircraft.

The ejection seats in a B-1B saved a crew of four this week. They haven't always worked.
The crew of an Air Force B-1B bomber safely ejected before their plane crashed Thursday at Ellsworth Air Force Base in South Dakota.

No. I was in Electrical. At that time in the Power Shop (everything 220v, thus the refer trouble call), but I spent most of my time in the Light Shop (all the 110v stuff), so I did do my share of flight deck lighting.

They were better than the old C rations that's for sure but eating the hot dog MRE should earn you a silver star lol. We were in the desert in California and a buddy tossed a couple of the hot dogs to a dog that had found us and was hanging around. The dog sniffed them and I swear it made the funniest face and backed away lol.

The corned beef hash was good, I guess it's hard to mess that up.
