Welcome back man. Glad you're in one piece and wish you could tell us the story behind the arm but it's all good.


BTW - Thank you!

Thanks for your service. I develope software for the Navy (DoD Contractor). We specialize in EW (electronic warfare). Most of the software engineering I do will probably never get used (hopefully). My niche involves protecting the ship if it were to engaged upon. We already have our new Q-70 with our HMI (human machine interface) up on the DDG USS Ramage.

lol thx! I made a poster about opsec once. These girls always tried to ask what we were doing etc. and (since we hit port there are 5K plus sailors hitting up every bar) they already know that we're sailors and try to leak info from us, ie when we're leaving, how many people are with us.

USMC here.

0311. . . . . Rah!


So if you got hurt on QRF, what were.....ehh nevermind.

I think you were really 'punching your bore', 'rubbing one off', whatever you wanna call it...


Sorry you got hurt, brother. Hope you have a speedy recovery.
