This ships bridge photo was taken in 2002.
It could be either TAO-145's or TAO-145's. These compartments are still clean.
It really is important that American People
are aware of efforts required to support their ships of war.
Our sailors are out there on OILERS
Every day of the year,
Not to fight,
But to support those who do fight.
OILERS are never mentioned in the NEWS,
MOVIES or on TELEVISION.
All the public seems to want is seeing Fighting and Fire Power.
WE are becoming very complacent.
We can not let our guard down.
