Part II.

After my nemesis was removed from the ship in cuffs, life was a little better, but I was about to find myself in a mess, some of my own making, some inflicted upon me.

A new 1st class replaced T9, and we found our Chief was about to be replaced, also. And how!

The Chief came in and inherited a fustercluck. It's like the more commonly known term, just more disorganized. And what a mess it was!

Our previous days had been dreary. Our Captain was a Psych Major, and loved to see how far men would go before cracking up. We spent days, weeks, cruising around the islands off the California coast, waiting to launch test missiles. Battle station drills, General Quarters, General Quarters! All hands man your battle stations!

And then sit and do nothing, most of the time.

And after that, the 24 hour a day sweat and grit, and noise of the ship yard. 3 months of pure misery. Our nerves were frayed, and scuffles became common. Spirits were rock bottom, a mark of poor leaders. No one cared.

Then this pair comes aboard.

BM1 Bonta, a long-armed, barrel chested, bandy-legged Popeye-type, and BMC Caro, a flinty-eyed Vietnam Vet who fought in Riverine Patrol Boats. Tall Italian with a Pancho Villa mustache, and a gaze that could freeze a bonfire.

And here I am, Mr.20 year old busted kid with a really bad attitude. Oops.

[QUOTE=crs7088;2758956]Holy crap that's insane!!!

Yes, and that's what everyone thought. I spent 4 hours with a Navy pshrink over that. He reported back that I was fine, I'd just been backed against a wall one too many times.

Part III.

We were informed of our impending WestPac deployment, and received some stunning news. We wouldn't be going overseas with a carrier.

We would be one of the escorts for a Battleship.

U.S.S. New Jersey

And we finally had our opportunity to see some of the world.

So, this duo began trying to rebuild a group of men into a coordinated team. And, this would be a Herculean task. Parks flew, and the forging of a crew began. The verbal hammers rang out, blazing heat was applied to soft materials, and soon a new alloy started to resemble a usable tool.

I was given a challenge that would test my mettle. I was sent to LSE [Landing Signalman, Enlisted] school. My new duties would make me responsible to assist our helicopter get aboard a pitching, rolling, salt-splashed deck in any kind of weather. A deck just 40' wide by 85' long.

What they didn't know was that I have a handicap. I don't have normal depth perception.
