The KOG would have been Seventy Years Old in this photo on Trepang's Alpha Trial.
The OOD would have been twenty-eight. ![]() |

Skipper, KOG is a term I'm not familiar with. Care to illuminate this old raghat? [Yes, I searched the net and NavSource, no joy.]

I was the OOD, the Skipper was CDR (Later RADM) Dean Sackett
KOG was a euphemism - Kindly Old Gentleman. Google on KOG Rickover PS Like you, I was a raghat (that ended up being Commisioned.) Edited by SaltiDawg - 04 Feb 2021 at 9:58am |
