Just a quick note to compliment the Captian, out of London. Your advise is right on and your position on gay shipmates is refreshing and commendable. I was the Commanding Office of a USN Destroyer, many years ago. They did not ask and I didn't tell.
I would be interested in some of your most interesting cruises.
P.S. I lived in London for about 6 years.
Cheers, Ron
