Chief was my first COB. He made me messcook when i first reported to the boat (644G). It was my first of many humbling and valuable lessons in my Submarine career. Thank you for helping to teach this young nuke what it truly means to be a Submarine Sailor. You and your beloved family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Sailor rest your oars.
Very respectfully, EMCS(SS) Barrett Weiser, USN-Retired.
