Great list! Now than,I have a little something for you on my site!
I thought the Navy’s unofficial motto was the thing we here more than anything else at sea, “tweet, tweet, tweet, THIS IS A DRILL, THIS IS A DRILL, GENERAL QUARTERS, GENERALS QUARTERS. ALL MEN MAN YOUR BATTLESTAIONS FORE AND AFT. PORT SIDE DOWN AND AFT, STARBORD SIDE UP AND FORWARD, THIS IS A DRILL, THIS IS A DRILL” Sometimes three or four times a day and night. Or, for me, the unofficial motto was, “COFFEY, GET YOUR ASS DOWN HER ON THE DOUBLE.”
