Eggs that you buy at the Commissary are not "waxed." The ones I bought as the Supply Officer/Food Services Officer were not "waxed."

Just saying.

I remember waxed eggs in 88 or so, when I was mess cranking. I dont think the eggs we got on the left coast were waxed. 
I do know what happens when an entire case of eggs (loaded aboard in 1989 prior to leaving the yards...) gets discovered in late 1990 and the discovering a-gang twat "accidentally"* drops the case maneuvering it to the fan room door. You get that reek and people gagging throughout the ship in about 3 seconds. Fan room was next to the COB's office. He was not impressed. Good times.


*"Accidentally" because when the COB got to the fan room (far faster than the cuplrit could escape), the COB made note that the sailor in question already had an EAB on his person. Said sailor got a bit of extra duty out of it - fortunately for him, the Command Triad thought it was a good prank. Best CO/XO/COB combo I ever sailed with. That XO JJ Donnelly.

I knew ADM Donnelly's father, also John, as a LtJG on Toro. Saw him again at the Toro 50th Anniversary reunion at PNS, where she was built, in '94. Seems his dad went on to drive Alvin for the navy on many of its more famous exploits and then when the navy gave it to Woods Hole he retired and went to drive it for them. Seems that submarining runs in the family,
