Former Combat Camera Diver

[badfishnt]

Greetings all, I'm a former Navy Combat Camera Diver new to ScubaBoard. I'm moving to Greece and excited to get into some recreational diving in the Med. Excited to use this forum to discuss underwater photography. Here is one of the favorite photos I've taken:

I also have some gear to sell:

• An unused Pinnacle Evolution 2 Dry Suit (size ML) with Temperate Under Garment (size ML), Tecline Dry Suit Overboot (size 9), Merino Neo 5 Gloves (size L), and 7mm Dry Suit Hood (link: Buy Pinnacle Evolution 2 Drysuit Male at Low Price | Divers Supply).
• An unused Poseidon Jetstream 1st and 2nd stage regulator with octopus (link: Best Poseidon Jetstream MK3 for Sale online | Divers Supply)

Thanks for mentioning. I’ve seen this photo used in a lot of interesting places.

You have to have a certain number of posts in order to do for same threads in the classifieds area. Members have been scammed, which is the reason. New members can’t send direct messages either due to this.

How do we know the photo was actually taken by you?

You must have some interesting stories. What units did you serve with?

Fair question: Here is a link to a lot of my work that's posted to the Defense Visual Information Distribution Service (DVIDS) Aviation Survival Training Center Norfolk. If you scroll through far enough you will find this particular photo: Underwater Photo Team

Expeditionary Combat Camera in Norfolk. I deployed to a command task force in Bahrain and did a lot of diving in the Gulf. Definitely some fond memories of working with Kuwaiti, Qatari, and Bahraini divers.

Probably $900 obo on the reg and $1500 obo on the dry suit. Also, depending on the location of the buyer, I could work with them on the exchange location or shipping expense. Would post to ebay if need be. I'll post to the classifieds soon.

Just curious, what kind of diver training did you have to do? We had a photographer's mate in my Second Class Diver school but he stopped after the 4 week Scuba phase (1970s).

Mass Communication Specialist must get sent to a lot of secondary schools. Is there a different rating for the intelligence-related imaging on aircraft and drones?
