Spot lighted member BMC Darrell
Lewis
I digitally met Chief Lewis at our sister facebook page and listened
to some of his videos he posted there. His stories brought back memories of my days on steel decks, and his use of Navy jargon
added greatly to the material. Anyone from the CO down to the newest enlisted man aboard knew to respect the Chiefs for guidance
and wisdom, espically during a crisis. Read Chief Lewis' input at our "Spot Lighted Members" page, and visit the
Facebook page and Chiefs stories as well. I'll post the link at the SLM's page Click Below.
MEMBER SPOT LIGHT
"Twenty years from now you will be more disppointed by the things that you didn't
do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your
sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." - Mark Twain
