"The Rowan experience for better or worse was memorable as
intense, all-consuming, tedious and somewhat indescribable unless you participated (Gunline, Yankee Station, typhoon Taiwan-Straits, unreps, vert-reps, San Miguel Beer and PI in general, ....). Long stretches at sea with the accompanying discomfort, inconvenience and general deprivation was (for me) put into perspective during an internship as a Physical Therapy student working in a VA hospital, treating the horror of wounds. I'm grateful and doing well, the 50kv had no long lasting effects. I returned to the Rowan to finish my tour of duty before discharged in late '73."
