That sound of forced inhalation, the muted tone, and yet the anger came right though. The things that bring a smile to your face some 20 years later.

That was one of those times they HATED having the motor controller for the manuevering ventelation fan to be OUTSIDE of manuevering. I had tripped it out on the way aft. He could not reach it without leaving his watchstation.

He got even weeks later, but that is another sea story.

These are fun and put some light on what life was like then...One of the reasons I go to the reunions is because we jaw about this stuff, and some it I forgot, but I do love memories and would not trade my dolphins my a million bucks...
