Here's a Memory For You
Click on the play button, and you'll be whisked back to a distant time when you stood in the hot sun on a crowded pier playing shitty ditties while nobody listened.
It's a ship arrival. I didn't say it was a good memory, did I?

Ah, sweet memories. This could have been any fleet band, any where!
I played piccolo in a few of them - 1982 through 1989 - and knew you in Newport, too, by the way! I was that ditzy E-3 welder up from the sub base doing OJT before heading down to the School of Music.
Thanks for a great blog, Frank; it's been fun perusing. Glad to see you're still around!
