Best Moment
Departing and Returning as a team of four from hometown USA

   

Worst Moment
Darned jet back was late into Chicago; hopped Convair 750 to MKE, then DC-9 into Madison before runway closed in blizzard conditions; wife stepped on my shoes.
I had mono for 9/11 weeks and did not sleep for most of those weeks; told day after best obstacle course run that can die with slightest ab contact.

Other Memories
JR DI cut the top off his white Mustang but came by for me to put junk into it, while his BABE girlfriend sat there in it; same DI drunk and crashed his bike into the squadbay one night after breaching the guard.
