I recently got a chance to take pictures of my shipmates advancing. This is a big deal for us lowly Boatswains. After few hours of editing I hope you enjoy.

The old scullery. So much good stuff left behind. It honestly hurts my mind when I think about how much money we have spent building and then abandoning this stuff.

Forgotten Mess Hall. Probably 30 years ago this was full of sailors waiting to eat and catching up with shipmates and friends. Now it’s slipping away into a toxic oblivion

Sad old rooms. Since the base closed down back in the 80’s I wonder how many people have spent the night. I imagine wild teenaged parties and double dares, homeless people escaping the rain and artists working on their graffiti.

My sister from another mister, my fellow urban explorer, and dog loving camper, and I entering a building through its roof
