Thanks for the clarification and your service. Few people really understand the capabilities of the P-3 Navy, operating independently, perhaps 100's of miles at sea, away from any support. On the other hand, operating out of NHZ, it was not unheard of for the crew to serve Maine lobster on board. (XP3NFO).
