and I'd could be retired by now. BUT, I would have missed 1/3 of watching my kids go up. The four years I spent in the Corp. were very good ones, but I spent 6 out of every 18 months aboard a ship in the Mediterranean Sea. It wasn't where I would want to raise a family though. I do miss the...

Life has changed! I appreciate the spirit that you originally started this thread in. Unfortunately, some others are turning it in a negative directions and I'm really having a hard time not responding to them. 9/11 was the second terrorist attack that impacted my life. The first was October...

"All the Above" Most common for me is that my (or my buddy's) tank is down to 1000 psi. Although I have ended dives due to nitrogen levels and my buddy's temperature comfort, too Jarhead

I've attempted to bring the accomishments of GUE divers to the attention of the ScubaBoard members. Respectfully, Jarhead

I knew with the hundreds of projects going on around the globe, some of them had to be GUE. They can't speak for themselves, if no one knows about them. Let people know what GUE divers are doing. There is no link to your site from the the GUE site. Accomplishments earn respect. Arrogance...
