Just who is that short guy, and why hasn't he appropriated a Foulweather jacket yet? Wonder if he had a closet full of them?

He got one from us on that boat... also got one from my previous boat when he rode for Alfa Trial.
I have told the story before, but when the Admiral Came up I reached down and grabbed his upper arm to provide support. I felt my fingers actually close around his frail upper arm. He frequently gave those Foul Weather Jackets away I was told! |
