Re: New line

Allan Gaetzman (later BT2 KH) on Liberty (A school) in Chicago in the summer of 1960 got a tattoo of his Girlfriends name. I wonder if he still has either.
I remember #5 pump room bilge full of Black Oil due to Stripping valve opened on service tank in #4 MMR The pipe was not on its hanger and rubbed on another line till it broke.

Re: New line

I remember a friend of mine when we were in Phila. on the pre commissioning crew who was going to get a tattoo with his girlfriends name on his arm. He said he was going home to ask her to marry him. I told him I didn't think it was a good idea. he didn't listen and he went home that weekend after he got the tattoo and she ended the relationship.
