Awesome! Thank you so much for the pics! One stupid question from me, What do the difference in the emblems mean? Regular meatball being merchant and the other being navy ships?

Yes definitely a unique and unforgiving environment, could see myself if trying to run through to battle stations etc and hitting the knee knockers lol. The sonar was not in the conning tower? |

@Kaleun Marco
Thanks for sharing those Looks like a great time all around. Were you allowed into the conning tower to get a look at the TDC and all the other cool gear? I wanted to get a good look at the DR tracer. The Pompanito had the conning tower gated off, at least when I went through in 1986. I was bummed! The tubes on deck are ready service lockers for the deck gun........if I remember correctly

[\quote] Yes, i was able to get to the Attack center but not the Bridge. that ladder gets steeper and higher every year. here are some photos. one is blurred because i moved while the shutter was taking the shot. there is truly not much room up there. and it is dark. and cramped. and not very high (as in overhead). and hard.
