Sorry, no Pfc's in the Navy.:cool:

But he said Sfc, or Seaman First Class.

Seaman Half Hitch is the one I'm familuar with. He was the dummy sailor in all the naval comics when I was in. We used to call our screw ups "slipknots"

Sailor Steve, check your PM.

SkvyWvr,

I never got to see the comic strips, but I do remember seeing the old cartoons at the saturday matinee, before the old cartoons were banned by our need to be politically correct, but I think you're right, as that was the name "HalF Hitch" in the old b&w toons too. But I'm going off memories over 30 years ago, so I could be wrong. But I know they had a repeating name for the character in those old training cartoons. You just don't see the Navy ones like the Army or Aircorps films anymore. Even my Bugs and Daffy WWII cartoons video is targeted against the Germans, with no mention of the Pacific.

Slipknot is really good too! (he he)

But McHale was the genius of the group. How about Tim Conway's idiot character, ensign Parker.
