James's Story
Just to catch you guys up, I joined the Navy 1 month out of high school and had boot camp in Orlando, Fl. I had my Navy Cryptologic School in Pensacola, Fl. I got stationed in the Philippines from Feb 1988 - 1990, came back to Pensacola, Fl for another school. Then I got stationed in Guam from 1990 - 1992. While in Guam I work on my 1st Ship (USS Tripoli) and we were doing mine sweeping operations in the Persian Gulf after Iraq invaded Kuwait. Our ship hit a mine and we were stuck in Bahrain for 1 month in drydock while our ship got repaired. Then we resumed work back in the Persian Gulf before sailing home. I went on another ship while I was in Guam (USS O'brien) and we traveled to the Persian Gulf again to work. I got stationed in Kamisey, Japa...Expand for more
