First thanks for your service....  We all did what we could.... I lived in FLA, near the ocean so I was used to boats, and the navy was for me...  My Dad and most everyone except one uncle were in the army during WWII...   So I went to the fleet, and even felt that at the time I did not appreciate it...  It proved to be an experience, which shaped my life, and really expand my horizons.... 

Ya I was one of the Sentries that made the rounds, on board ship and on pier patrols...  Never got to see any kids sneak in; but we did get our share of young women...  That part we enjoyed...  I will post some more pics, soon..   See Ya.. K
