My Dad served in the "Seabees" for forty years. You won't find a more dedicated SeaBee.
A Little Bit About the Seabees
The Seabee are a combat and construction wing of the United States Navy. One of their mottos is: "We Build, We Fight" and the other is "Can Do". Their name originally refers to their purpose as "construction battalions". Later they adopted the Sea Bee mascot.
These photos were taken during the last "Seabee Days" celebration which was held in 2009 at Port Heuneme. Veteran WWII, Korea, and Vietnam Seabees get together a few times during the week for reunion activities. I like tagging along with my Dad during the week. It's a lot of fun.
My Dad was the 2009 Seabee days honoree.
You can see a few video clips of him speaking on his web site.
