Well, he's said the most enjoyable part of shooting is coming back here, having some coffee, and
cleaning guns.

There is something rewarding about taking things apart and putting
them back together again. When we were "on station" in the ship there
was not a whole lot to do and I got to the point where I could field
strip a M2 and a 1911 in the dark, then put them back together.
The thing I really liked about the CG was, it was not a "union shop"
and they encouraged us learning other things so I started hanging out
with the snipes when I got bored with small arms and learned
machining, welding and some other things that carried my into my old
age.
As long as you looked busy, they left you alone.

Army's the same way. Soldiers that look busy don't get messed with.

They really do a lot of cool stuff on a ship and I did not mind
walking around helping. These guys are more than happy to teach you a
skill if you will give them a hand.
