I had a 25 year career in the USN. I spent most of my time with the USMC as a Hospital Corpsman. I’m a full bred gravel agitator. I thank the Marines for helping me become a man and to understand sacrifice for my brothers and sisters.

Happy 95th anniversary to NASA astronaut James Lovell
In 1962, US Naval aviator James Lovell was selected in NASA astronaut group 2 “The Next Nine” and flew onboard Gemini VII, Gemini XII, Apollo 8 and Apollo 13.
Note he wore his personal Rolex GMT-master 1675 aviator wrist watch on an Oyster bracelet in this June 1967 photo with US President Lyndon B. Johnson.
Anno 2023, James Lovell remains the second oldest living Apollo-era astronaut, just 11 days younger than colleague Frank Fred Borman.

the amusing part about roleplay and DnD is giving my characters the most ridiculous possible names so everyone has to say them
