  • I served as part of the "Vise Squad" from July, 1983 to February 1984. Was there when we swapped out the old Waukeshau's for Caterpillar's down at Base Miami Beach. Good times. Good memories. MK3 Bobby Burke caught a lobster on a hook and line at the pier one duty night. Yep, right into the pot. Lobster & butter at 3am. Does it get any better??
