LAX at 3am, the USO had some 30 bodies sleeping all over the place. I took some food and left. After parking on some baggage claim chair for an hour sleeping, I woke up and hustled to my flight. I think I was the last one in.
Connect Atlanta..
Charleston...Don't think I ever been to South Carolina...van picks me up, 15 mins to the shipyard, and off to the US Bobo. First real vessel, first real ship job aside from my apprenticeship. More nervous then excited. I get to the ship and find out we are docked here until Feb and then going to Saipan. Pretty different from what they told me. No Diego Garcia. Well....after a quick tour and meeting a lot of names that I easily forgot, 5:30 am start tomorrow. Welcome to the industry....
