Contacting War Ships via VHF for Communication

There was also this tall ship anchored off Miami on the way down as well.

Then there was a full moon all night and into the morning.

Add all that to a almost glass calm day and night and it was a perfect ride down to Key West.

My idea of what running at night should be. Nice.

This is the best shot of it I could get on the fly when we left for Cuba via Key West the other day.

Nice shot. We'd only been told about it as we're back on Lake Michigan.

How have the weather and flies been?

How have the weather and flies been?

Currently 65 degrees and rainy. Was nice yesterday in Chicago, but headed north for a couple of more towns we didn't get to earlier. Tomorrow 75 degrees with some rain and thunderstorms.

I was aboard USS Sacramento (center vessel) during an unrep just like this in the Persian Gulf.
Only difference was the turrets were facing outboard.

[FONT=&quot]Hey Bob, were you on the Sacramento in the spring of 1991? If so, here are some pictures of your ship with you on it, on the way from Honolulu to Long Beach.

I actually flew over to the Missouri to fix her MARS station on that deployment! Small world.
