Notes

1: In either late 2005 or early 2006 (I have forgotten which), USS Gettysburg (CG-64), my first ship, anchored in the harbor of Cartagena, Columbia. Due to my previous knowledge of the city's history of drugs and crime, I did not go ashore.

2: On December 19, 2008, USS Taylor (FFG-50), my second ship, pulled into Naval Support Activity Souda Bay, Greece (located on the island of Crete). This was just for one night. My division finished our work day after liberty call had been called. Both of the E-6 and junior shipmates in my division couldn't go on liberty that day; therefore, they could not go ashore. Also, I couldn't find any other liberty buddies (that I trusted on liberty) after I showered. Therefore, I wasn't able to go ashore.

3: On July 28, 2010, USS Taylor pulled into Naval Support Activity Souda Bay, Greece (located on the island of Crete). However, this was only for a brief stop for fuel (BSF). I couldn't go on liberty that day (and had a watch as soon as we moored). Even though I had the afternoon watch-free, I had to participate in a working party. In addition, Taylor was delayed in leaving port, so our commanding officer (CO) authorized a brief libery call -- for everyone except for my duty section! Because of all this, I wasn't able to go ashore.

4: On May 1, 2010, USS Taylor pulled into Ponta Delgada, Portugal (located on the island of Săo Miguel, in the Azores). However, this was only for a BSF. Therefore, I wasn't able to go ashore.

5: On July 25, 2010, USS Taylor anchored off the coast of Constanţa, Romania. However, this was only for a BSF. Therfore, I wasn't able to go ashore.

6: On August 20, 2008, USS Taylor pulled into Rota Naval Station, near Rota, Spain. However, this was only for a BSF. Therfore, I wasn't able to go ashore.

7: On May 13, 2010, USS Taylor was inport Rota Naval Station, near Rota, Spain. However, I wasn't able to go ashore.
