Wow! They were able to keep their sense of humor and entertain the newbies and others not faring too well. Now that's a good leader in the making.

Good Afternoon
I know I could not handle being on a ship. I get seasick thinking about it.

It seems the bureaucratic merry go round operates at top speed in
the military, with the SNAFU factor always operational (Situation Normal All F'd Up). But I can just see him singing and doing the choreography - wow!

Re: Sherri_G
They did a lot of things when out to sea to entertain. I have one photo of Mark and his buddy doing another music, I forgot which song but they were using brooms for guitars and getting down. They didn't have videos, but they would play the music over the loudspeaker and the top deck would be the stage.

Good morning
That would be a terrifying situation to be in. I believe that it would have made me 
As for the singing and dancing on the deck, that is just hilarious.

His writing sure has the knack of putting us there, feeling the fear and the rolling stomach, even smell of the tossed cookies.
Grateful that I know he did make it home eventually.
