Which produces large port or starboard lists angles with large up or down angle of the boat.

He was an MM2 at the time, IIRC. He needed to take a dump, but there was nobody available. He did it in a bag, dropped the bag in the TDU compactor. One of the new mess cooks threw the valve to compress... and the boom of the sh!t explosion under 3000# hydraulics was rather impressive. How do I know? I was still a nub, working as phone talked in maneuvering.

It's funny realizing all the terms I'm used to saying are mostly made up. <br />You could talk about scrubbers and burners, and why they're called that. Snorkel, dive, surface, and the ever favorite, turn two (to?) Commence field day...followed up with sliders. Speaking of food, we call them chicken wheels (the breaded ones). And one more: verdigris. That stuff is always fun.Ben Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06127057487706121938noreply@blogger.com
