Re: NAVFAC Barbados

Reported there in June 1968 and relieved Ben Hacker as XO.

Re: NAVFAC Barbados

It is really crazy that I was glad to leave Antigua and get back to the states! When I could have re-enlisted for Barbados or another "down range" Navfac! Instead I went to Norfolk (Comoceansyslant 78-80). I would have loved Barbados and I am sure you did!! I certainly haven't heard of anyone who didn't!

Re: NAVFAC Barbados

I was there from 71-73. I was a CS-2 at the time I arrived and worked my last 2-3 onths in the T-building after requesting a rate switch. I too remember Banks and also Mount Gay. Remember the beer softball games? Good times with a daughter born there in Speighstown. George the pig farmer just outside the gate, lots of memories.
