In the Navy
This past Memorial Day weekend my family came up and we went to the Buffalo
Naval Park to look at the destroyer, cruiser and submarine they have docked
there. My dad spent a long time staring at the engine of the sub. It is amazing
how the sailors lived in such teeny spaces. In the sub, some of them actually
slept above and below the torpedos.(Picture of the torpedo room on the right)
I once saw where Aaron lived on the carrier he was assigned to. It wasn't as
small, thank goodness. He couldn't be on a sub because he was too tall. I bet
they would stick me in one right away. "Why she was built for these things!"
