Thanks for writing, Ed, and thank you for your service as well. I have much respect for the Navy as my life was saved by a corpsman in Nam. Semper Fi, indeed. I am very familiar with Yokosuka. I was there and in Yokohama and Atsugi when I was wounded. I was put on the wrong bus and wound up at Camp Zama in Japan. I was the only Marine in an Army hospital. Talk about confusion lol. Eventually, they sent me back to Bethesda and Phila. Naval Hospital. However, I really liked the cities in Japan. Here is my latest prosthetic cover for a Navy Vet here at my hospital. I really like being here on connect and sharing with everyone. Lots of good people here. I am limited as to what I can do but should you need anything, do not hesitate to let me know and I will do what I can. By the way, I like the cups, too. Meantime, please take care and I look forward to hearing from you again. Have a good week.

@usmccam, that is striking! I'm sure the Navy Vet really appreciated your work on the prosthetic cover. As a Vet who has been on both sides of enlisted and being an officer I think you probably have heard a lot of sea stories. I wrote a speech for my Toastmasters club a few years ago with a sea story from the first ship I was on the USS Herbert J. Thomas DDR-833 that I think you might enjoy - The Day I Lost My Good Conduct Medal.
