A little info for all the non military folks

[Rookie]

I was stationed at Point Loma, Ca. for 2 years on a floating drydock. Yea, Joe I know. What the H*** is an Equipment Operator doing on a floating drydock. I operated the cranes. The swab jockeys called the submariners bubbleheads. The funniest joke I ever heard them tell was a sub is the only ship the Navy has that deploys with 130 man crew and returns with 65 couples.

Too funny. That explaines a few things... Gives a whole new meaning to hot bunking...

I stood subtender duty for awhile and between them and the boot marines smacking their heads on the top of the hatchways running to GQ, we were kept pretty entertained. I mean come on, a poopie suit?
