Congratulations,

I just went through the CCTI in Washington, DC and I had a blast.
Even though I was pregnant and gave birth, my group was very supportive and fun. Congrats to all!!

[SKC Ronald Brumble]

Way to go!!! Kudos to all those that were with you and welcome. I know that you put on those anchors a while back Eric, but I'm glad you were finaly able to get through the initiation ;) .



Send me pictures of your hat boxes please.

[SKC Eric S. Highland]

Thanks Ron,

Congrats to YNC Williams and company too. It was an awesome time and now its catch up time at the unit. A month can really put you behind. But it was well worth it and would recommend it highly to anyone considering.

Chief Brumble,
When are you going to display your photo collection of hat boxes?
Seems you have quite a collection by now...
Share with the rest of us??
When you do share, I think it best to do so behind the closed door.

[SKC Ronald Brumble]

Weeeellll you would have to come up to one of our Initiations. :D

Believe it or not, I only really have the pictures from the three initiations I have attended, and about 6 others. I have not had quite the volume of pic's I was expecting. But, that's ok, I'll keep the ones I have and just add to it as I go. I have not made up an actual photo album yet, I was holding out for one more set of pic’s from an initiation. I have about 30 hat box pic’s; some boxes have more than one shot.

Where is your pic :D ? You did not send it to me. No, wait, tell you what, at our next initiation, you can come down and bring it to me and I'll show the photo album.

Oh, also, I try not to show PCPO's the pictures.

My pic is on it's way Ron!

I didn't get a reply via email, but I hope you got the rest of the pictures I sent you. As well as a couple of Fish pics. :D

In the Words of KeBo Potato Chips are Scary :eek:

[ETC (FT type) Ed Shank]

1500 John? I am dissapointed. We are a little more expensive down in Portsmouth. I was the king at 25000. Chasing a sheep around yelling daaaaaady probably didn't help. Funny story I will have to tell you next time I am up your way.

[ETC John D Zidek]

I had a fine in my book for $100,000.00 due to my Doughnut Free CPO Mess Petition, I guess they threw that one out.

Thanks ETC Delaney for charging me with that. I had more fun trying to get that thing signed then anything else.
Plus I have some evidence to use against a few soon to be Chiefs. 2 Full pages signed, 2 colums on each page......Evil Grin

[SKC Eric S. Highland]

Congrats Chief!

Listen.. Tell Tony McDade I said hello...

We go back to days on the Polar Star together. Congrats to your entire Mess!

ITC Corey Terry is missing from the Photo, but here it is.

[BMC Edward Briganti]

Greeting Fellow Chiefs, yesterday on 27 Oct 2006, I completed my rites of passage and CCTI, and became a member of the hallowed fraternity of Chief Petty Officer in the USCG, (one of the proudest days in my life). So I like to introduce myself to the mess. My name is BMC Edward Briganti, currently at Pacific area Training team out in Alameda; I’ve been in for 14 awesome years. I’m married and have a 3 year old daughter.
I hope to be an active member of this site, and get into some good discussion with my fellow brother and sister of the mess..
