Are you ready for the answers to last week's two truths? First let's review the questions:
1. I once ran in a Volkslauf
2. I have 182 days of sea time on an aircraft carrier
3. I once made freshly squeezed orange juice for Danny Glover
Ready? Here we go:
1. True. I did run in a Volkslauf. Not the one highlighted above because I have never been to that base or that state, and that particular Volkslauf started after I got out of the Navy. I just wanted to give you an idea of what one was. It's hot, it's muddy, and it's painful.
2. False. I only have a whopping 10 days of sea time. The squadron I was with was a training squadron (VMFAT - 101) so we only went to sea for five days at a time. I've been on the U.S.S. Independence twice. (Yes, I was a sailor stationed on a Marine Corp base. Let's not forget people, the Marines are a divison of the Navy.)
3. True. Danny Glover was aboard the U.S.S. Independence preparing for his role in Flight of the Intruder. He just wanted to know what it was like aboard ship. One of the times I was on board I had to work in the ward rooms (officers quarters) and one of the cooks let me make Danny Glover's o.j. and take it to him.
I bet you were wondering how Danny Glover fit in with the rest of the questions! Most of you guessed that it was false.
Interesting side note. My Dear Man and his best friend painted the planes for Flight of the Intruder. It was their squadron's planes that were in the movie. If you watch you can see a fuel drop tank stenciled with VA-165. The movie came out while the squadron was at sea, so the friend's wife and I sat through that entire boring, awful, movie waiting to read the credits. All it said was, "Special thanks to VA-165." So much for a career in painting for the movies.
Now on to this week's super three about my birthday.
1. My birthday is my favorite holiday.
2. I dated a guy with the same birthday as me.
3. Dear Man and I had our first date on my birthday
Which of the above is false?
