I wondered if I had shown you a picture(s) of my home for a couple of years (the Boutwell WHEC 719; 723 is the Rush). The 12 of these Hamilton class ships were partly funded by the Navy to augment anti-submarine warfare capabilities, entitled us to an annual 5 week war games 'vacation' in San Diego. Rest of the year we patrolled the Aleutians & Bering Sea. They had variable pitch props (didn't have to reverse shaft rotation to stop) & were powered by twin Pratt & Whitney turbines + dual 18 cyl. diesels. As an electronics tech. petty officer with radar specialty, the top of the 2 masts were part of my private domain (rotating antennas). These ships served ~50 yrs. before being parceled out to friendly countries. The Boutwell is now the BRP Bonifacio in the Philippines navy. I loved going to sea, my married shipmates not so much.
 
This has been posted at least a dozen times in the last 4000 pages, and is quite possibly the nicest ass in the whole thread. Very reminiscent of my wife's when she was 21.

I like/love the post every time I see it.
To bad it’s photoshopped

I bet the original is good enough that I wouldn’t kick her out of bed 😀

And more like 40-50 times on this thread lol
