"Thank you,for the books. We received them today (quick delivery!) and I have placed them in our crew library. We are Texas-based crew and are in the fourth month of a six month deployment. Our ship, USS SCOUT, is a minesweeper and we operate in the Central Arabian (Persian) Gulf. So you can put some faces to our name, I’ve attached a picture of our crew taken on the fantail of our ship during a recent visit by R. Lee Ermey, the actor. Our homeport is Ingleside, Texas and we are looking forward to returning to the Lone Star state soon. We appreciate your time and efforts at Mustang Engineering to send us these books. It helps to make our efforts worthwhile when we know the folks at home are thinking of us."
