Great duty station.  In a band that played on base, met my wife there.  Made LOTS of great friends, getting back in touch with some of them.  I joined the Navy to avoid the draft, but would have gone voluntarily if I had known that I was going to Rota..

I was the staff dentist on board. I hope I helped the sailors with their tooth problems. I had a great experience on board. While serving on board, we sailed to Halifax Canada, Cape Canaveral, Cartegena Columbia, Panama Canal, Guam, Sasebo Japan, Singapore, Korea and many typhoon evasions.
