Life Afer Spinax: Angelo Carnevale

Rank On Spinax: Reported aboard as Ensign in August 53. Promoted to LTJG in September 54.

I was sort of an odd ball--the product of an experiment. Graduated from Officer Candidate School in July 53, went to CIC school for 4 weeks and then reported to Spinax (was an SSR at that time). Needless to say, I did not know my ass from a hole in the ground. Served on Spinax until April 56, at which time was transferred to Perch. 

Went to Diodon from Perch and then to sub school as an instructor. Served on Irex, Tigrone as XO, and then had command of Tench from Dec 65 through March 68. The last three boats were out of New London as you probably know.
