Time for salad

I remember the time when the chief caught me munching on lobster in the galley on the USS Stein (DE 1065). It was leftover from a topside barbecue the day before. He had intended to use the meat for lobster salad for the crew.

Yes, there was enough cold lobster for the salad. And I learned what it's like to incur the wrath of the chief!
