Hi Shipmates of our '80-'81 "West-Pac" cruise. � And a "Fair Wind & Following Sea" to Y'all. � (That's a good Alabama term.) � And a "Southern" hello to DKSN Vinny from Long Island, NY. & if any of my old shipmates from '79-'81 see this... post me a reply. � Refraining from that old phrase: "Nuke 'em 'til they glow & shoot 'em after dark"... I'll say instead; Take Care & Be Chilly ! �  � 

Hello Daniel, fair winds and following seas to you too! Was onboard 78-81 south pac and west pac cruises! What an awesome good time that was! Was in Aft engineroom.

Hi Tom, I missed the South-Pac cruise but, I well remember all the tales that were told about Japan and Australia party-times.  West-Pac was an enlightment to a land-lubbing boy on his first cruise ever.  It's really good to hear from you, take care, my ship-mate.  What would y'all have done without a storekeeper to get in your way?
