Got my license on Sukiran or rather by that time Camp Butler from Bill Moore who was on his third tour. Bill had acturally licensed me in 1970 but since I hadn't dove in years I got recertified just to be sure I know what the heck I was doing.

I remember it too over a month between classroom and open water task not the three days you see in hawaii and else where but when I was done I knew to be careful but was none the less like all of us prepared.

Oki is still great diving. Last Dive was in 2000 with Mark Payne off Ishigaki went way too deep 120ft for someone out of shape and not used to it, but got lucky.
