Yokusuka Naval Base, first port on an 18 month deployment when I was just 18. There was an alley in the town that was where all the service guys hung out, very much like T.J. (lined with clubs full of professional women)thought you might know if it was still there. Good luck on your tour, are you a Shell back or polliwog?? NSF

FYI, Shellback= a person who has crossed the equator, usually on thier way to Austrailia Via naval ship I believe. It is quite an ordeal believe me. Funny how each branch of the service is better than the others :( NSF

[Red Horse]

Hell yeah. Got some good stuff too. Some of it is so smooth that it just goes right down. :cool:
