People Who Don't Stand Watch... ...should not call the ones standing in the cold wind pussies. I'm just putting that out there and letting
others learn. With all possible respect, of course.
Seriously, the wind chill up at the lighthouse that some people only saw from a distance was severe, but the units up there were ready for it. Also, the first class petty officer I talked to who stood watch on a boat last night, while aforementioned others were in their heated tents, said he just couldn't stay warm or get warm after watch.
Tonight as I tuck into my cot, I will dream pleasant dreams of talking to certain others after they spend a night in an unheated gym. Some of us remembered to bring plenty of handwarmers...
