Obviously, I have a romanticized view of such an experience, and am most unlikely to ever even try, but my thoughts come back to it this time of year . . .
In 1977 I was stationed at Roosevelt Roads, PR, and lived in barracks well above the waterline and about a mile back from the coast. One hurricane had me wondering if my swimmer certificate was up-to-date.
