Rolling in the muck is not the best way of getting clean.” Aldous Huxley (1894 – 1963) lingua franca \ LING-gwuh FRANG-kuh \ , noun; 1. any language that is widely used as a means of communication among speakers of other languages. 2. (initial capital letter) the Italian-Provençal jargon (with elements of Spanish, French, Greek, Arabic, and Turkish) formerly widely used in eastern Mediterranean ports. Origin: This term comes from the Italian literally meaning "Frankish tongue." It's existed in English since the 1600s. Origin: Moiety comes from Old French meitiet , from Late Latin medietas , from Latin medius , "middle." Source: http://dictionary.reference.com/wordoftheday 7 Good Afternoon Gentlemen, Thank you for your confidence in me in reelecting me as your commander. I have found one of the most challenging things to do is talk about myself. I had to provide a 100 word script why I wanted the position of SE Regional Director, then, as if that wasn’t fun enough, a 500 word biography. The coming month brings about the following base activities, 1. Massing of the Colors: April 6, 2014 at 1500 at the Scottish Rite Center 7230 Garners Ferry Road 2. Meeting at Museum: TBD 3. Rally for Veterans: April 23, 2014 from 1000 to 1400 at the North End State House Steps Gentlemen, it is truly an honor to command what I think is the best base on the east coast, thanks again for re-electing me. All hands should possess a copy of their service record AND medical record. If you do not have yours, call me, when you are in from a your computer and I will guide you through obtaining it. A successful claim consists of a injury that occurred during active service, diagnosed, treated, and the same diagnosed condition or a resultant condition due to it, now! Anyone working around rotating machinery, MM’s, EM’s automatically has a hearing loss claim. It is only 10% max by law of congress, but, its FREE hearing aids. The massing of the colors is a very moving and meaningful ceremony, I highly encourage as many of you to show as possible.

  • Ex-USNS WYMAN (T-AGS-34) Vessel History
    NATIONAL REGISTER ELIGIBILITY ASSESSMENT VESSEL: ex-USNS WYMAN (T-AGS-34) USNS Wyman (T-AGS-34) rests at anchor, date and location are unknown. Carl R. Friberg Jr., Master, USNS Wyman. http://www.navsource.org/archives/09/10/1034.htm. Vessel History The oceanographic survey vessel USNS Wyman (T-AGS-34) was launched on October 30, 1969 at the Defoe Shipbuilding Company in Bay City, Michigan and placed in service at the Boston Naval Shipyard on November 3, 1971. It is the second naval vessel to bear the name. The first was a WWII-era destroyer escort named for U.S. Navy Ensign Eldon Wyman, a casualty of the sinking of the USS Oklahoma (BB-37) at Pearl Harbor in 1941. USNS Wyman honors U.S. Navy Rear Admiral Robert H. Wyman, who commanded the Navy’s Hydrographic Office from 1870 until his death in 1882. Under Wyman's eight-year leadership, the office began a systematic and sustained program of world-wide charting and surveying, the precursor of the U.S. Navy's contemporary global oceanographic research effort. Wyman was designed and built to conduct hydrographic and oceanographic studies under the technical direction of the Oceanographer of the Navy, but was operated by a civilian crew. Wyman was one of four sister ships of the Silas Bent class, which included USNS Silas Bent (T- AGS-26), USNS Kane (T-AGS-27) and USNS Wilkes (T-AGS-33). All vessels of this class were initially assigned to the Military Sea Transportation Service,1 which later became the Navy’s 1 MSTS was a post-World War II combination of four predecessor government agencies that handled similar sealift functions.
