Lunch at the CPO club on base was good. Met 4 buddies. Luckily, I remembered that one guy's name about an hour before going. If I did not, I was going to hang out in the back until someone else said his name. See, I had a plan! haha.
We all came from the Fat Leonard era where the husbanding agent (the guy who sets up the pier services when a ship pulls in) was running a major scam, cornered the service with some high ranking USN folks. This included prostitutes, bribes, extra services, as well as receiving classified information such as schedule. A lot of people went to jail, including the NCIS agent that was in his back pocket. I remembered the agent as I used to see him in the gym and he used to give the spy brief. I had forgotten about the whole thing but that was the main topic of discussion for a bit. Then the normal who is still alive, who died, how much we gotta pay for medical, etc. I learned a few things, including that I have to pay for medicare in 3 years. My other friends said I didn't but I guess he's wrong.
I ordered a reuben sandwich, which was pretty good. Ate half and brought the other half home. Ate too much and fighting the urge to go comatose. Glad the site is working now to keep me awake.
