Sorry dude, but it's pretty obvious that you have "emotional"
issues.

I hear the Flat Earth Society is looking for recruits. They don't demand
much in the way of evidence either--just that you be a true believer.

I
was at various times the deck officer, the supply officer and the engineer,
I was also a diver throughout the tour and one of several officers of the
deck underway.

Sorry, never heard the term.
Dave


huh? How come you never heard the term? It has been around since Christ was a
corporal in the infantry. In the US military, O-1 ranks wear a gold bar as a
rank indicator, hence a "brown bar".

dave, the term pre-dates double double duece.

btw, as I recall subs were never referred toas ships, but rather as boats. Yet
I seem to remember you claimed to be ship driver.

Yes, I know well what bars each wears. But the term "brown bar" was never
used within my hearing as best I can remember. Certainly not in the
wardroom, though our CO was a mustang. Since we were part of the sub fleet,
it might be that it's a term used mainly by the guys on the ground, which we
just didn't have.

At any rate I was an Ensign for the first part and a JG for the 2nd part of
my tour.
