SlimJim -
The story behind the screen name'''' I was attached to NCWG2 Naval Coastal Warfare Group 2 where we had Small boat for Littoral patrols and ship escort or crew Serve fire support for people who needed a ride from non-hospitable places. Boats 27-49' long with anywhere from 4-12 fixed crew serve weapon mounts. Looked like a cactus fully rigged.

Sounds good. I pretty much get along anywhere unless its overrun by non independent thinkers. Then I move on. Being a tour trail horse is not my thing.
Great Signature quote Vince. Couldn't agree more.

Thanks mate. Being an retired Aussie Army infantryman I learned very early in my career to be the 'grey man' and not let them beat me down.
Bushy is an old...well not that old...trail rider, and still throws his leg over a horse regularly. He's a damn fine bloke with a very dry sense of humour which is part of his attraction. Now if you hear anybody yell RUN, SUZ HAS A SWITCH, follow Bushy to the ladder where we all run up and hide at the top so we don't get our butt tanned by our resident sweet lady Suz. She's a gorgeous lady who keeps us inline.
