I served onboard from June 80 to July 83, made 2 west-pacs, Shellback, and a dry-dock. Did some growing up, made many good friends, made many great memories. I was heartbroken to see her go to Davey Jones's locker. A salute to the O'brien and the crew that served her. Mike...long time no see bud. Great job on the site. You make me proud young grasshopper.

in CSE1. Got there when the OB was in the yards. It should have stayed a little bit longer. Got out of there before the move to Japan.

The photo of the Queen during the Shellback Initiation with the Red Top and White Swab Hair is me (then ICFN Jones E-Div). There is another photo of someone getting ready to kiss my toe. If you look at the photo of me sitting and to my left on the deck is the bottle of Hot Sauce I used on my toe before the wogs kissed it. Ha! God that was some memories. I'll have to look for some great photo's to add to your collection on here. I think I have been to every void and space on that ship so it was kind of creepy to see her sink. Miss the wrestling matches against the GSE's and A-Gang.

I served on the O'Brien in NX division between 84 through 88. Came aboard as a QMSR and left as a QM2. The OB was a proud chapter in my life and those that I served with.
