Allan (prefer Al, cause I can't spell Alan, errr Allen, errr Allyn, oh what the hell - Al)
Born 07Nov52 USN 1970-74 RVN 71
Computer Engineer
Avid sailboat racer
Spent most of 1970 in GLakes first for bootcamp and then for Electronics Technician (Radar) school. I had an electronics background coming from Brooklyn Technical High School, NYC."

My home away from home in '71 (after a short stop in Cornado Island for SERE/CI training), not my boat, but you get the idea. Didn't work on much electronics.

My home away from home in 72-74, looks like a very calm day for the North Atlantic.
While trained to work on radars, I actually switched to doing Electronics Warfare maintenance and operations.
Oddly this old tub produced
1 4Star (Command-in-Chief US Atlantic Fleet. I served under him)
1 3Star (He was a lowly Ltjg when I served with him)
Another 4Star - the current CNO.

My current home away from home.
Mine is actually #1800, but the paint job is the same :)
