enough to be shown around the ship by Lieutenant Commander Matt Williams. It
truly was a great experience. Check out the photos link.

cabin with another Lieutenant. While karl and Gary had to stay in a room
with 10 others. During our stay we had a real life visual of the exercises
that were conducted for the sea side safety check. This helped our understanding
of the MOETs operations alot more and clarify some of the uncertainties.
