Glad you got a chance to visit HMAS Onslow. Glad to also have you aboard Subsim and please post more.  |
Amen to the special breed. It might sound trite, but I was about
to buy dolphin badge cuff links at the gift shop (I've never served in the Navy) and thought it was borderline inappropriate to wear them; if even discretely. I appreciate what dolphins mean to those who have earned them, so I happily settled on some nice anchors. Sometimes I wonder if I joined the wrong service!
Thanks for the encouragement Wallace! I like to quietly lurk within the forums, and have done so over a few handles since 2003. I do appreciate the dignified pace of the attendees here, and love being a part of it. What a great group!
