Three months after I went aboard, we had our home port changed to Pearl & left for West Pac, but I was introduced to Dirty Dan's by an old salt buddy from my time in Morocco who called me on my ship one morning. He & another buddy had just got off a troop ship & I met them at Dirty Dan's. From that day to when we departed for Pearl, Dirty Dan's & Thompsons were our drinking hangouts when we went on liberty & didn't feel like riding the subway into Manhattan. Met a few local chicks in both places. Both were pretty decent watering holes for thirsty sailors.John, another old Navy white hatnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-81441965276480360442014-09-08T16:07:49.969-04:002014-09-08T16:07:49.969-04:00My memories as a sailor aboard a ship home ported ...My memories as a sailor aboard a ship home ported in Brooklyn Navy Yard go back to 1959 & my memories include two local Flushing Ave watering holes called, as I remember.
