At the enlisted club. The person on the left is Richard Yetter of Newotn, NJ, We went to school together and he introduced me to photography. I ended up in the lab and he was with the deck crew. Our lead photographer got him transferred over to the lab. The person in front and center was a hospital corpsman in the sick bay on the Currituck. A popular guy and helpful to all, as was everyone.
