I cannot state any story of my own, I've never been outside the country and am not enlisted yet. My brother was in the Corps and got to go to Hawaii, Okinawa, and went to port and liberty at several other places. Says it was the best time of his life, being on ship.
You might want to do some reading and use the Search button before starting a new thread.

Lot of stories about that posted here already, no real need for a new rehashing of them.
