God Wore an Orange Cap
Imagine if you will that after much of a long and distinguished carreer in the U.S. Navy that you find yourself aboard a WorldWar II Liberty Ship assigned to Radar Picket duty in the North Atlantic. You are the Electronics Officer and the ship's mission is Electronic in nature, making you an important cog in the machinery of the ships daily life at sea. The Commanding Officer is an Academy Graduate assigned to what might well seem to many as a dead end to his career unless he is able to carry out the mission flawlessly month after month. This leads to apique of paranoia and the end result is a heavy hand in dealing with his officers and crew. Some of the crew band together with the a vowed intent of either driving the old man out of his mind or making him think that he was indeed out of his mind. The Executive Officer and many of his underlings are what were known to most career sailors as "Charm School" graduates. Some unkind persons referred to them as "Shoe Salesmen." The Exec and his underlings were constantly in fear of the wrath of G.O. Daniels, the Commanding Officer and this fearful state led to many a humorous situation to an easy going CWO3 Kaboe who wrote down many of these happenings for this story which is by all means Fiction. Any resemblence to persons living or dead is purely coincentental and G.O.D. forbid that any unit in the U.S. Navy ever found itself in such a state at that which exists aboard the U.S.S. Myopia AGR101. Accordingly, the reader is advised to keep an open mind and develop a hearty sense of humor during the reading of this work. Enjoy yourself, and forget that part about "Truth being stranger than fiction."
