Memories For This Unit

Best Friends
GMG3 Leon Busby. Attended boot camp together at USNTC San Diego, assigned to and served aboard USS Coral Sea until our original discharges in the summer of 1967. I enlisted in the Army for 3 years thereafter and Leon reenlisted in the Navy for 2 more years. We have been best friends for all these years (60 years in 2023).

Best Moment
Transfer to Guided Missile Division from 1st Division (USS Coral Sea).
   

Worst Moment
When we were docked in the Phillipines and I was struck in the face by a coward with a steel dogging wrench, the beginning of a shipboard race riot.

Chain of Command
USN July 31, 1963 until May 1967. 1st Division, USS Coral Sea 10/63 until 6-65, then GM (Guided Missile) Division, USS Coral Sea. Rated a Boatswain's Mate Seaman in 1st Division, and Aviation Ordnanceman 3rd Class Petty Officer by Discharge.
