Bah .
You fellows are too funny!
Here is what I thought..................... stolen from SOCNET, my hangout place.
"It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions and spends himself in a worthy course; who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly; so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat."

I have these very same words posted over my desk at work, along with a picture of a Sturgeon-class submarine. I believe they came from Teddy Roosevelt.

Did you spend time on a sub Raghorn?
I made one trip on a deployment, lock out, then at a compass coordinate picked up. Treading water in the middle of the ocean in of the dark night is hard on the nerves. You can't help but think maybe you didn't kick hard enough to stay on compass course.
