Hey all, I wanted to post this here for you all to see since the new
Merchant Marine group hasn't caught on yet. I want to get our messages
out there and let people know who the Merchant Mariners are - what we
do- and just how damn important it is that we get support from our
lawmakers.

Could it be, oh no, all the people that might be interested are

at sea...

Many MM ships are being fitted out with the internet. It's trickleing
down to the pleasure mkt...but to slow IMO.

And most work a on/off schedule that gives them time ashore. My
favorite schedule was 2 weeks on 2 weeks off. My uncle worked 3mo on 6
mo off.

I'd like to see a picture of that merchant marine plaque and see if
it's worth submitting a story.
