Hi Terry, that would be Sheldon. He was Navy but back around the
Korean conflict. 8 years tops and probably 1 tour.

Me, 1983-2009, I'm more current. Bigger decks still have some sort of
beans at least once a day among the offerings but you need to get Wasp
class LHD to CVN sized to see it. They have a bigger line so more
options.

Yours with crews of 250-300 (if I am not mistaken) would have seen them
at times, but doubtful at breakfast.

For me, CVN74, LSD43, LHD2. Women weren't allowed on ships much my
first 12 years, so I made up for it the last 14 with only 4 of that at
shore.
