Hey Bushkatootie there's a web site dedicated to the Pledge, you might even find your photo there. I bet that boat rode high and bounced along, I'm sure not one for a bouncy boat ride.


He's only got
one nerve

It bobbed around on the sea like a cork in an agitated bathtub...When I went aboard the engineers told me that if I had never been sea sick (and I haven't ever been sea sick) that I would on the Pledge underway.

They had a guy follow me around for a day. I smoked a pipe in those days. At sea it was a small "bulldog pipe". By afternoon the guy following me, to insure I didn't cheat, was barfing all over the place because he got the brunt of the smoke from that little pipe.

If you like rock & roll, pitch & yaul. A minesweep is for you.
