A satirical look at Naval life as seen through the experiences of
Chief Petty Officer Steve Sharkey, an acid-tongued, 24-year veteran of
navy service, who was stationed at the Navy Training Center in San Diego.
He was in charge of a company of new recruits, and it was his job to make
sailors out of a collection of diverse ethnic types, most of whom had never
been away from home before. The various ethnic backgrounds and stereotypes
were all targets of Sharkey's verbal barbs, but beneath that harsh, nasty
exterior beat the heart of an old softie, especially when he sensed the
suffering of a recruit who either could not take his bluster or was suffering
the problems of adjusting to life away from home. Sharkey's immediate superior
was the long-winded and over bearing Lt. Whipple; the base commander was
Capt. Quinlan, who was, of all things, an attractive woman.
In the fall of 1977 Sharkey had a new, and male,
commanding officer in Capt. "Buck" Buckner.
