Its all starting to make sense
Psychiatrist: now duck hunting's a fun sport but, uh, why do you use dynamite?
Still hilarious. I get this image of you grabbing it's long neck and throttling the thing back and forth while its head and body thrash from side to side (all while screaming, BIRDS!), like you're using a speed wrench or something.Steve Wilkins said:

STA 21 Nuclear OC
We were on our way to a Summer White inspection at NSI. While formed up in our little grinder, one of the OC's had a turn land right on the gold star on his shoulderboard. Bullseye.

I only knew the man for a couple months...
My favorite Gunny Ortx quote: "So... aren't we a plethora of emotion this morning, Mr. Eckel?"
We actaully had a couple people get sick from all the goose sh*t on Nimitz Field (this was back when it was nothing more than a grass field w/ a USMC PT platform in the middle).
God I miss that place...
xmid... what platoon where you in?

By any chance was he talking to former Navy fullback Kyle Eckel?
I had Dean Miller for Calc when he filled in for Mr. Prassl who went back to NAPS to teach (he's now back at BOOST). He and I butted heads a lot. I think he thought I asked too many questons in class. Dean Miller was a pretty good teacher, but not as good as Mr. Prassl. I also had Mr. Shaw for English :sleep_125Spot said:
Dean Miller slammed a chair down on a table during NAPS indoc and yelled "hippopotamus" and told us that would be the only thing we would remember from NAPS... Wierd guy. As for other stories about profs, after the hippo thing I dont remember much about NAPS...
