Okay, so I am on this Brit ship setting up an exercise for the Tu. It is a week after the helo crash so a lot of folks are edgy for good reason..anyway, a Brit Officer knocks on my stateroom door promptly at 1800 to go to dinner. He is in Mess dress (formal) I am in cammies(not formal) This fact is promptly pointed out to me--"Is that all you've got" Yes" "heathens" so we head out and have cocktils--then we have dinner with wine, then it is movie night with beer---see why I like this place? So the movie is over the bar is closed the lights are dimmed and this guy says "mate, you're empty, want another?" "well sure" says I but the bar is closed. He pulls out a key. We have another. Another guy pulls out a key and opens the bar and refills us.--I was like, well, I thought the bar closed at 2300? I was then informed, well, the Captain likes the bar closed at 2300--the crew likes it closed at 0400---so we worked out htis compromise
