Hah! We were all told by our chief that SecNav was coming through the Transient/Medical Holding barracks, and that
no one had better be in their "rack" (bed) when he comes through. Of course, there was ol' Fireball laying on top of his rack with his shoes off and an ice pack on each cheek in the Acey-Deucy dorm when the guy came through. I didn't even pop to attention.

I was taking (I believe) 2 Empirin #3 every four hours and it was easier to pretend I was stacking Z's.

In retrospect, I'm glad I had all four done at once. I was in my prime then and not being able to ingest anything but V-8 and milk for
two three day stints would have cost me even more muscle. I'd already had my appendix removed (ruptured) and was in a medical holding company for that when we decided to get those teef worked on, since I wasn't going to be doing any heavy lifting anytime soon. It was a fucking year before I felt all the way normal.
Sorry about your B-day thread derail, Shell B
