Yeah, I know all about him.

Probably more than anyone in this fleet.

Eh? Do I like him or not?

Well, I guess if it's a matter of 'like' or 'dislike', it'd be 'like', I guess.

While there's plenty of examples to choose from,

...but he's just so hard to work with.

The reason for that?

Right at the very foundation of this fleet, even.

After losing my way coming over from the Naval Combined Fleet HQ at Yokosuka all the way to this middle-of-nowhere place in the very definition of the boonies...

After I get the hole all dug, go ahead and whack this baby in.

Due to budgetary reasons, and to lessen the work period, he used high explosives to get the water mains in order.

Okay?

Thank you for coming all this way.

I know this is right off the bat, but this is yours.
