I did not report aboard the USS Sam Houston till 1970 and of course being an enlisted man we would not have had too many discussions anyway, especially with Zeb being the captian, but I know and respect many men like Captain Zeb.
Smart, quick, calculating, alert, someone to respect, a leader of men and machines, sleep with one eye open for the radioman at the door.
No doubt in my mind that he would've done whatever the President of the United States ordered him to do.
So long Captain Zeb see you on the other side ...
I hope eternal patrol has mid rats (food for those going on watch lol)
