Are you guys still calling him Center Ball?? Classic!! I hope HighDimension will fill us in on CB's escapades during CQs....
Indeed, I even talked to a couple guys from VAQ209 over the weekend, they even told me they just came from CQ Det on CVN 77.Don't forget the wily veterans of VAQ-209. Even aging Reservists and their equally aging jets can bag a few traps now and again!

I think that was the CS that won out above the rest. We'll see if the next batch (May?) of boat players has any good stories. Maybe there will be some equally good ones from VT-31![]()
Couple of those bubbas were in my multi ground school class and they couldn't believe that even I knew who he was, me being an Osprey guy. Helps that I went to college with him but small world none-the-less. HighDim and MIDNJAC keep us informed.:icon_smil
