View Full Version : Those crazy wives.
Note: Not a Midway story.:sure:
We were out at sea for about 3 weeks. There was this guy who had the reputaion of being pretty p-whipped. He could never go out with his friends, had to call as son as we got in port, limited to amount of money, yadda yadda yadda. The ship was pulling in San Diego, but I can't remember if it was an unexpected stop or just a date change.
Anyway, this guy was looking forward to getting out and hanging with the guys. I was off watch, and actually in civilian clothes on the fantail waiting for the brow to be set. When it was set, people on the pier started coming up. This girl came up and started talking to the OOD. He grabs the phone and anounces "ET2 Jones(Name changed to protect the innocent), quartedeck"
It then hit me that this was the p-whipped guy's wife. ET2 came up and the look on his face was the best. He had no idea she was going to be there. He had duty that day, and couldn't leave the ship. When he told her she went freakin' ballistic. The other watchstanders had to restrain her, and when they tried to, she started kicking and screaming like you wouldnt believe. She was wearing a dress, with nothing on underneath, so all that witnessed the event had a good show as well.
Evidently, the ombudsman told the wives they were to stop in SD and Mrs. Jones wanted to surprise her husband.
What a suprise.

Does anyone remember the Midway Wives club showing up unannounced in Subic in the early 80's ? That went over real big with the boys !! There was a PW first class in our division who was dying to get out on Magsaysay drive and while we're rigging shore power he starts staring at the pier and mumbling " I can't f***ing believe it, What the f*** is SHE doing here ? " We thought he was going to cry. She came on board and was all excited about getting a place out on Grande Island for the week and while he tried to put a good face on it he was devastated. He ended up have 2 nights on the beach after the wives left for Yoko but he was very bitter about the whole inport and vowed vengeance on those responsable. The real kicker was after having only 2 nights out in town, he ended up at BDS-6 talking to a corpman about an annoying drip he had developed.
That BDS-6 line was just down the passageway from our Line shack. Talk about your "Deadmen Walking". :hehe:

No kidding Eagle. Specially when yours truely ended up there once with the corpsman being a wise ass.
"Hmmm....this reminds me of cleaning my rifle...hmmmmm."
If I remember correctly, those g**damned swabs that the corpsmen used were long enough to touch your friggin tonsils. (from the inside) I hated the one and only time I had to have that little procedure done.

Oh, you guys think you had it bad??? If you remember correctly, ADMIN/PERS shared a fucking bulkhead with BDS-6. And when we gut a hole in the bulk head for a customer service counter, it got even worse. People started thinking we were the "Admin" for the drip-center, and started asking us questions. I remember this one guy, about 4 days from returning to Yokosuka, runs up to the counter and looks PN2 Corne in the eye and says "tell me what I got doc!" PN2 doesn't know what is going on, but he was quick and had a good idea. He looks down at some papers, ruffles them, shuffles them and finally picks up a couple of sheets. Looks at them and goes "hmmmm. Worst I ever seen! You better get yourself down to medical QUICK!". Guy took off like a a bat out of hell. Came back about 3 hours later looking for Corne. he he.... As far as I know, he never found 'em.
And I KNOW you remember this, Cat... One of the guys had the song "3 days later, go see the doctor", and he used to play that as loud as he could with the speakers pointed up towards the open customer service counter. Man, we used to get some pretty fucked up looks. But, hey! We used to do some pretty fucked up shit there too.

We had an LT who was a holier-than-thou type who liked to rag on the guys who went to sickbay for the drip. One of our corpsmen caught an attitude with the LT, and after some prodding (and a few of us getting him blasted on Red Horse and Mojo) he let it spill that the LT had been down to sickbay to have his drip cured. Whatta prick.
I remember the clap line running out of sick bay up the ladder to the mess deck. We gave each of them two 4 ml penicillin syringe to warm up in each hand, but if they bitched they got it cold. One in each cheek. The problem was by the early 80s most of the gonorrhea was resistant to penicillin. So, they had to get a third shot of Trobicin. To make matters worse, if they got treated in port, they couldn't go on liberty until their culture was negative a few days later. It payed to know someone in Medical (disbursing, personnel, and supply also). :Poke:
Hey d41, can you tell me if this one is true or not. I remember the "clap line" all too well. And, I also remember the corpsman telling us and I quote... "Take your penis out, do not move it shake it or squeeze it. I am going to insert this (swab) and take a sample." Okay, supposedly there was one idiot that called the corpsman a fag when he went to do the swab. And, the corpsman just kinda run the swab in and out a few times, really slow, like he was cleaning the rifle of an M-16. Talk about painfull. And, according to the story, the guy was in tears when he left. Even if this isn't true.. the moral of the story is... when you are getting a pipe cleaner run up your shaft, always be nice to the guy on the giving end. lol
Things in life that make you go.... http://bushwhacked.net/forum/images/smilies/sprachlos020.gif
All's that needed is the tip of the swab in the urethra. Shoving it up to the hub is just cruel and unusual punishment. I'm just glad there was no HIV when we were on liberty over there. :Poke:

well it would go down to the hanger across the divisional doors, first time I saw it I thought it was a chow line until I saw it going up the stairs, I knew that was no chow line, cuz there weren't any smiling faces :mad: :laugh: :laugh:
Funny thing is I never knew it was the clap line, I asked my friend what was up, he said he was going to medical, I says, whats wrong, he says I don't feel so good!! Well now if I couldn't pee I'd be feeling bad too :!!!:

I worked in Strike Ops and the BDS-6 line ran right in front of our door then turned and went down the ladder to the hanger bay. I used to work the night shift and I remember back in '85 when we pulled out of the PI and headed to the IO. About 2 days later, I opened the door at about 5am and there was a line already forming, shocked the S**t out of me, as the passageway was always empty at that time.
I was one of the lucky ones - 3 years overseas and never caught a thing (until I hooked up with a RMSN that I stupidly married, who ended up giving me genital warts and NSU - so I remember the swab as well!)
By 1985 everyone knew about HIV/AIDS, and I suspect that there was less sailors getting the clap. I left in '82 so I don't know for sure. Most of the working girls in Mombasa are HIV positive, and I wonder if Midway visited there again? We were there in '80.

Man, and I just thought it was a forum for guys who got the clap. Sorry guys.
Hey d41, can you tell me if this one is true or not?
True as per second hand verbal witness from my friend who had this on going bet on who would catch the clap in port. He was always getting the gleep,as he called it. I think those stories scared the shit out of me and I'm kind of proud, so I didn't want to feel I'm at the mercy of another person, and not a pecker checker. I think some of those guys liked playing peter plumber :!!!:
Are you asking is there an strain of clap which can't be treated? Answer no. One would have to be insane or drunk to have sex these days without protection, but every month thousands become HIV positive. Makes you wonder. :nuts:

Hey she is clean and it feels soooo good! Yeah right, I don't lie, uh huh right :!!!:
By the way there Ojive, is that you dancing in the avitar? If so, you've lost some pounds since I've seen your dancing avitar last. K
Actually I try to be modest about my virtues and well dancing and weight, so actually it isn't me..... :scary: it's the late Chris Farley. Although I can move like him, maybe even better :!!!: and after a few :beer: 's I'm loose and ready to hit the pole in the center on the floor and show up some ho's :hehe: :hehe:
I knew this cat we called him Jethro and well he was porking some girl or thing....? In Mombasa and I'm like dude are you brain dead or what going slick on that stuff?
