said: I was on MESSENGER as the EPO from Jan 91 to Aug 94. I worked for a BMCS Casto, where you
at ?? I left there and went to the CGC MOHAWK, a 270 out of Key West. What a mistake that was, I
should have listened to you BMCS. Had alot of good times in Baltimore, alot of morale onboard.
Give me a yell !!!
