Thank you.

BTW - I haven't spotted you blasting around the IE in quite some time. You still local?

Yep, Red Hill. We do hit Glendora Ridge every so often but in Caymans instead of Boxsters these days.

"Amazing management experience while sleep deprived." That sounds like an echo to me - fur sure!

She was first to get OOD and SWO of her group, completed her first successful deployment and is moving on to her next, which is the NAV position on a soon to deploy DDG based in Everett. That's a long way of saying it seems like both a reasonable and important request. And you all seem to affirm that.

Thanks again guys!

My first ship was the USS Ingraham out of Everett. Almost 20 years later I'm still in Washington state. Everett is a great little base, and I'd be happy to answer any questions you are she might have about the area. Just drop me a PM!

I have no advice about binoculars. I was a weapons tech, so my watches were in the "Cold Blue Room" AKA Combat Information Center.
