My first Mast was on the Cochrane just after we got back from the '72-'73 cruise. Me and an RM2 (can't remember his name) was out on the Ala Wai and I took him to Capt. Nemo's. Needless to say we (got drunk), as a result we got taken in by the HASP. (No need to elaborate what happened at the HASP HQ) At 06:30 the next day we were released to the SP and taken back to Pearl via a pick-up, in the bed. Since R.K.U. Kihune was the skipper and I was a "Houlie" mast was the only option. Ended up getting 2 wks restriction, 2 wks extra duty and 1/2 pay for 2 months. NO PROBLEM!

My, My, Things certainly changed from the sailors of the 60's....

The worst that I can remember is the eternal battle between the twidgets and the snipes...

Don't ever remember anyone causing any damage to the ship...

Guess our values were a little different...

Anyone else?
