AOR 509, AOR being the designator for Auxillary Oiler Replenishment.

Spent a couple years on her sister ship out here, Preserver. Great ride with a full load of 20 odd thousand tonne of fuel. Rides like a cork on empty!

Yes, I know. It was tongue-in-cheek.

I thought it was head-up-ass.

Had it on as the Desktop for a month now.

Been here and done this.

Spent two years as a 280 lady, then the rest of my time on minor war vessels. Never been so sick than on an MCDV in sea state eight.

Well we can spare them! The Coast Guard and the RCMP took care of our pirate problem down east.......

My bad Streaker. I never looked at the CTV story, having known they were heading out and what the general idea of the trip was.

Gunnair, there is no amount of sea pay that could get me across the brow of an MCDV headed for heavy weather! I was on the open bridge of the tanker a few years ago when we were headed into Boston in sea state 4? 5? There were three MCDVs ahead of us and even from up there (six storys up?), we would loose sight of them in the seas......

HMCS PROTECTEUR and PROVIDER are sister ships. Taking on fuel from either of them is great fun in rough seas. I wish the ships good hunting and a safe journey.
