Will It Blow?

Take that battleship picture and remove the battleship. Next, put three old duck hunters in a pit blind in the middle of a flooded rice field. Add 2 hours of boredom with a dash of fog and no wind.

Now, a honker meanders by. Yep, that's what it looked like when we all fired....and missed.

United States Ship Missouri is berthed at Pearl Harbor as a permanent living museum. Also at Pearl is the Arizona Memorial , Bowfin and an aviation museum. Its quite a place , not to be missed if you are in the area.

I used to fly into Marine Corps Air Station Kaneohe and leave the aircraft while flying back and forth to the outer islands for a week or two at a time. The historic hangers at Kaneohe are still in use and have been preserved to show the pockmarks from Japanese aircraft machine gun bullets. The historic Schofield Barracks are still there, remember "From Here to Eternity"? They are still home to the 24th Infantry Division.

The Bowfin is a real 'eye opener' for those that have never served on a submarine. I believe the modern attack subs are MUCH larger. I spent most of my 20 years in the surface fleet and have an admiration for those who volunteer for sub duty.
