By the way, CW, my dad was stationed at the naval base in the early sixties. He was a navy captain (physician) & I went to school on base before they tore it down.

PS: I wonder if the Oglethorpe (ship) is still around?

Blood, no idea what happened to GTO, he had some odd ideas but I liked him.

Blood, I seriously doubt it! Not too many 45 year old ships around. The Enterprise is getting there soon, and a few of the Tenders, but most every line warship is less than 30. I just decommed one that was 23! USS Deyo, DD-989 a Spruance-class destroyer.

gto must have got pink slipped, he will return...

It must have been over that thread of his, GTOs',that got pulled. I enjoy reading the banter, for the most part, though when someone, starts the namecalling, because they can't, or won't defend their position in the arguement, then I usually close the thread. Part of the reason, conservatrives, and liberals are coming together, is that W, has sold out the true conservatives, for the neocons, see facist. He is not to the left, but the extreme right. Father than a dedicated, freedom loving conservative can stand.

I heard that GTO tripped & fell on his pan flute.

He's having it removed next Thursday.

blood

down here they'd say, "he had a fit and fell in it."

*chuckle*

COME ON BACK, GTO.
