Haha. That reminds me of when I used to eat at the Mess Hall on Hickam AFB. It was more of a nice restaurant with a wait staff to take your trays from the table and there were lounge chairs in the bathroom. If I remember correctly, there was an aquarium in the place also.

Almost as funny as the military cartoon showing the army marching thru mud saying this sucks, then recon neck deep in a swamp wishing it would suck more, the navy watching their missle hit long range saying it must suck over their then the airforce watching a snowy TV screen sipping on a mr pibb saying No cable? this place sucks.

Naw I would ve stayed Navy.

Two around the world crusies, four caribean cruises, a west pac,a mediterranean cruise, two north american cruises and stationed abroad in a mobile unit.

Loved it.

I'm remembering Pirates of the Carribean.
