I was an EM from 82-85. I remember him. He just wanted out of the navy in the worst way. One evening when i was on sound and security watch he wanted to fake hanging himself. He asked me to get the OOD and stomp coming up the ladder to the bridge. He was going to kick the chair from under him and I was suppose to have my knife ready to cut him down. I told him I wouldn't do it because with my luck he'd break his neck. --Previous Message-- : He is also the one that jumped off the fantail : while out to sea just to get off the boat : : --Previous Message-- : One of the people I remember most from the : 85-86 med cruise was Bob Nichols. Any one : else remember him? I'll refresh you're : memory.

He's the one that : stole a block of lunch meat from the chiefs : mess after one of his rare liberties and sat : down in the galley to eat it. Busted again. : I got to know him well and he was not a bad : guy at all. Just not cut out for military : life. He's probably a millionaire now. : : :
