I was on the
Cowell 547 One the officer Mercery came to the side of the rail and I
noticed he was always running to the shop and tell us what to do and this time I told Mr Mercey stay out of my shop and tell me and i'll tell my men what to do. Later he came to me and said I don't like you and I asked him what will you do if you don't like me....I will promoate you from 2nd class to 1st class and send you on a bigger ship..... he made my day fine, Hary Simoneaux - in athe Navy 3 yr and 11 month they made me CDC chief damage controlman
