That is a great collection of photo's of his service. The "Honor Man" is a single individual who was the best out of his Shipmates during his boot camp. The forth pic down is the
'Shellback ceremony for when he crossed the equator . That is when they get hazed and meet King Neptune!!!They do some crazy stuff to them.(YouTube it!! You'll see) I have to say that Chief in a dress is what the waves looked like when I was in. Never want to ride those waves LOL
Fantastic photo's.
Thanks for sharing.
