My checkered past

Here is a photo of me that I dredged up from the bilges of the Way-Back machine.

For those that don't know (or could care less) about Navy insignia, at that time I was a Radioman Second Class. The gear that I have drapped over my head is a sound-powered phone that I was using to take navigational bearings while the ship was entering port. The ship I was aboard was the USS Antelope (PG-86)
