Seeing all those familiar faces from VS-21 brings back so many memories from my time in Japan. Thanks for putting this up .

Kitty Hawk set sail for a planned three-month underway period 2 March 1999, which included Exercise Tandem Thrust off Guam. Following the exercise, the Kitty Hawk/CVW-5 team was ordered to the Persian Gulf to enforce the No-Fly Zone over Southern Iraq. CVW-5 pilots flew more than 8,800 sorties in 116 days, including 1,300 combat sorties, dropping more than 20 tons of ordnance. On the return trip to Japan, Kitty Hawk made port visits to Perth, Western Australia, and Pattaya, Thailand. Kitty Hawk returned to Yokosuka 25 August 1999. She was again underway to the Sea of Japan 22 October to participate in Exercises Foal Eagle and AnnualEx 11G.

This video isn't from that cruise. This is from the cruise the following year.

That is the shellback initiation that I went through to become a shellback. This video isn't from that initiation (I recorded it). I wouldn't have been able to record the same initiation that I would have had to go through.

The reason I know that it wasn't 1999 is because I went through my crossing the line ceremony in '99 (I recorded this). This was the next crossing the line ceremony. I was able to record it because I didn't have to crawl around like a duck for 6 hours.

Dental department..good ole shellback here! Fun times. Just looking at it, I can still smell the raunchy smell of the eggs. Ketchup, mustard and all that gookie stuff...yuck! 😆
