It felt great to finally see our oldest commissioned warship. There are only active duty Navy and Marines assigned there. Pretty good duty for a sailor or marine.
Short people manned this vessel!
I'm just over 6'1" and had to duck on the lower gun deck and basically hunch over on the crew berth deck!
I was able to explain to my BIL why the s@#thouse in the bow was called a head. There were four crappers on each side! Haha...
I find Boston rather creepy...
