Needle, Ball, and Alcohol

A long time ago, when I was serving as a Navy Pilot, four of us, all pilots, said that someday we would write a book about our adventures, or misadventures while we were together in the Navy. Since then, one member has passed away. Three of us remain; however, we are now in our late eighties. I have attempted to step up to the plate and try to write as much as I can. What I have written is not the actual events, but rather a story of men who had fun together just as we did. We always lived with the knowledge that what we were doing was very dangerous. Perhaps that is why we approached life with a fun-loving attitude. I am proud to say that we possessed high morals and had respect for the opposite sex. All married and remained married unless death parted them. We were together in the Naval Aviation training command, and some other places as well. The TT-1 Pinto existed with only about a dozen manufactured. I did fly the Pinto, and I did crash in it. It was very nearly fatal for me. I welcome you to come aboard and join us. I can promise you a great adventure.
