"Cump, I spent so many years being rousted out of my rack at oh-dark-thirty reveille, that I've lost my ability to sleep in. Even since retiring, I snap awake every morning at 0400 and crawl out of the rack. Drives my wife nuts. I used to dream about being an old retiree who could sleep in till noon. Nope, can't do it. I feel a little cheated, somehow."

Commander, being in two different Combat Camera Groups taught me to sleep any where, any time, in short bursts, interrupted by photo ops. This has stood me in good stead since my reetirement; it also drives MY wife crazy, but, it's always something! LOL Stan
