Just counting out the days for my six month post-service period to elapse so I can reenlist again.

Default How Thick Am I?



The other day I told Moira I'd like to get our boy a new game for his Nintendo 'Switch'. It would cost around £30 so I suggested she might like to go halves

She told me she owed me £15 for some shopping she'd done online, so if I paid for it myself then she wouldn't have to pay me back. I looked up at the ceiling for a bit and then said I was happy with this solution

Next day I was getting the car out and started thinking about this whole deal again... something still didn't seem right

Well, I’d just like to introduce you all to me and what I have been doing for the past few months.

As you may know, I am a Cadet in the United States Naval Sea Cadet Corps. I graduated from boot camp in late July and am enjoying the non-recruit life. I have some pictures of me y’all might like to see.


And this is of me right before the labor day parade. My dad wanted a picture of me for his Facebook.


And here’s the whole unit marching. I am in the middle with the two yellow chevrons on my sleeve.

Finally, some boot camp pictures coming up.

Me operating “The Jaws of Life” with the local fire department as part of our fire fighting training.

And here is me folding the flag during Evening Colors. I am in the blueberries.

This is me tearing apart my rack and turning it into a smiley face in less than 4 minutes.

Part 2 will come later today.

Thank you all!

And no, I am not a Corporal haha. The NSCC took some liberty with their rank designs.

I just finished up my E-3 Seaman coursework, so when I pass my PRTs and go to a training this winter I should be able to rank up a spot.

The XO was adamant that I finish my coursework so that way they could give me leadership positions, so I stepped on the pedal. So far the only real job I have is maintaining the classroom and being an "assistant" instructor. It isn't as cool as it may sound, but I'll take it.

Of course If you'd focus on your baseball talent, you can eschew a poor paying naval career and play for the SF Giants and still wear that sailor hat! < 'Captain' Brandon Belt and SF Giants rookies returning from roadtrip

Hard pass. Wouldn't even think twice on that one.

Not quite one mile away from my current abode (as the crow flies) there is a river and in it this beauty is currently berthed.
