Which One Is the Real Me?



Here I am doing my watchstander duty in the radio room. I've put in about 20 hours altogether, mostly on Saturdays when we have patrol boats out on the Gulf or nearby inland waterways. Once one of our own patrol boats went aground (oh shame, shame) and another had to pull him off. That's the most exciting day I've had in the radio room, so you see it's not all Search and Rescue.
Mike sent me the photo below with an encouraging message aimed at getting me to try it. I was hoping you would think that's me with the helicopter. Heck, I don't even get to talk to the helicopter on the radio. Maybe I need to take another training course.

You look pretty damned official to me in that picture. And you look like you know your way around a radio room! Whiskey Yankee Quebec 2104, come in.
