Newbi fom Houston

[SemperFi]

Yes that IS in the great state of TEXAS!

I am brand new at the sport! Meaning I JUST got my certification! I tried it a few times at resorts (jamaica, bahamas, and a few in hawwaii) and got hooked!

But now I am in full force and full of questions! So if I get too talkative don't be afraid to tell me to shut it!

it's good to be here

atriot: I did some dives off of Atlantic Beach NC in May, on WWII battle wrecks, and on the last day out saw one of our Amphib ships coming back. It docked in Morehead City, after the chopters flew ahead. :mgun:

:iwagima: On the way back to the airport, I stopped by the surplus store at Cherry Points gate and pciked up some Utility caps, bumper stickers, etc. Even found a cap honoring my dad's WWII ship, "The Intrepid." Now a museum at NYC. Got the cap to him at his nursing home the next day - the day before he died. We used the cap in the funeral home display.

:wflag: We'd known he was winding down, and I'd spoken with the Top at the local Reserve Unit (my old unit) in advance. Then, we went thru channels with HQMC in Quantico. We were hoping for two or three Marines to come out. THEY BROUGHT TEN! I'd served on the firing squad for some funerals during Veit Nam (we had so many then), but I'd never been close to the grave for the flag ceromony before. That funeral salute was something!

Anyway, welcome to a fun sport. Don't feel guilty if yard work lose importance in your life, and don't miss the Sea Space show there in June each year.

Happy Bubbles, Don ldguy:
