I remember that day 21 July 2006 because I had finally got the call to move back the homeless shelter for veterans in Shoreline Washington which is north of Seattle. On 21 July 2006 I was walking from that Pioneer Square gulag homeless shelter on the waterfront of downtown Seattle where I had lived for 300 days and I was looking for to getting some sleep finally because at that other place I would at least have a private room. I was finding sleep impossible because people were deliberately making noises around me somewhere in some place where I could not see them and so I was constantly being jarred awake from sleep and I was very pissed off especially because I hated living in that homeless shelter and where I had no privacy. I couldn't even turn off the lights in the ceiling above me when I wanted to, not to mention the fact that anyone could sneak up on me when did get to sleep. So on this day 21 July 2006 I was walking away from that Pioneer Square gulag I was walking towards the bus stop to catch a ride to Shoreline Washington. I walked up the hill from the waterfront and when I reached the street that the bus line was on, I stopped for a minute to rest. That was when I saw him. Apparently, he had been timing his approach to me as he walked along that city street where he knew I would be going to catch the bus. What he was doing to lingering on that street and waiting for me to reach the point of the hill where that street intersected with the street I was walking on and up the hill. He would linger to the south as I traveled up the hill and to the east and then I would turn left on the street and start heading north towards the bus stop and he, to the south of my location and on that bus line city street would just sneak along behind me and follow me towards the bus stop. He was filming me with what appeared to be a digital camera. Apparently, I tripped him up because I stopped at the intersection where I was to turn left and head north towards the bus stop. I turned to look at him and his expression told me he wasn't expecting me to stop and so he continued on ahead of me and then he turned his camera around and was pointing it at me from behind him as I started walking again towards the bus stop. He was carrying in public a lit cigarette and I clearly recognized the rating symbol on his dress white United States Navy dress white uniform. In the other hand was the digital video camera he was recording me with. I continued walking and caught the bus to the Shoreline homeless shelter for veterans where I stayed until sometime in later December 2006 and that was the point when I could finally get my own apartment again, such as it was. I was still in that homeless shelter in Shoreline on Christmas 2006 but I moved out later that week and before New Years.
On the shoulder of his dress white uniform was the patch that clearly identified his unit as the USS John C. Stennis CVN 74.

I just noticed that the nickname for the USS Barry is "Bulldog," or at least, that seems to be the nickname. That may be an important clue, if I ever actually served on the Barry. I received two awards at Microsoft that were titled the "Bulldog Award." I doubt it was a coincidence, if I actually did serve on the Barry, I don't remember. I am wondering about this Rear Admiral of the Stennis Strike group. He was the CO of the Barry in December '95. I wonder if I know him.

Confederate States Navy
The Confederate States Navy (CSN) was the naval branch of the Confederate States armed forces
It was responsible for Confederate naval operations during the American Civil War. The two major tasks of the Confederate Navy during the whole of its existence were the protection of Southern harbors and coastlines from outside invasion, and making the war costly for the North by attacking merchant ships and breaking the Union Blockade.
The C.S. Navy could never achieve equality with the Union Navy and used technological innovation, such as ironclads, submarines, torpedo boats, and naval mines (then known as torpedoes) to gain advantage over the Union Navy. In February 1861, the Confederate Navy had thirty ships, only fourteen of which were seaworthy, while the Union Navy had ninety vessels. The C.S. Navy eventually grew to 101 ships to meet the rise in naval conflicts and enemy threats.
On April 20, 1861, the Union was forced to quickly abandon the important Gosport Navy Yard. In the process, they failed to effectively burn the facility, its supply and arms depots, or in-port ships. As a result, the Confederacy captured much needed war materials and ordnance.
