re: #277 Higgs Boson’s Mate

True; it was four years, and the pay was low, the chow wasn’t that great and there was was watch standing on top of a long day’s work. On the other hand I learned myriads of things that were wholly inappropriate for civilian life.

Chow wasn’t that great? The tiny Army detachments I worked with always tried to hire ex-Navy cooks. The one in Erzurum latched on to a guy from a BB.
