All four guys best friends in the Navy. All station at the Submarine Base in San Diego off and on for six years Starting fifteen years ago on the USS Jimmy Carter. All four men were on board.
Three were married with children. Shall we start with the one God made gay. That would be Jeff second from the left, or the one in front. They didn't ask and he didn't tell. If it was a choice he would prefer the Navy find out he is gay before his family did.
They were on a training exercise with South Korea Navy and scheduled to be under water for four to six months. In very close quarters. Jeff was prone to get in trouble and would attempt to bribe his way out of it by being just gay. He was very good at being gay privately, and very discreet. As a radioman while on duty he was in communication with all of the commanding offices on board, as well as other ships in the fleet.
Over time he would screw up, he would volunteer for extra duty. Offer to clean up their quarters, do their laundry, or possibly gay stuff. What it really came down to he was a hot young man. That played it very straight. He was cute, funny, He gave the impression he love taking care of them, knowing that it was all temporary, and these men were trusting him with their families. Then he sent a message but put east instead of west. It was a slight waste of fuel for twenty minutes.
That would be the meeting that would bring the three men pictured above to discover, they all share the services of the same seaman. This became life changing information for all three men. All three had a lot in common. They were straight, they were in the military, and they were married with families.
Mike (far Right) Married for 15 years has a 14 year old daughter. His wife hated the military life and asked for a divorce. He became single first.
Mark far left Married 20 years. Wife filed for divorced the day their youngest of three sons turned 18. All three boys all in college they sold the house and split everything down the middle.
Alex in the back file for a divorce . He fell madly in love with his high school sweet heart, he join the military, they have one boy and one girl. Then he found out he was sterile and cannot have children. DNA test proves they were not his but they are brother and sister.
Jeff being the one with the mouth as a communication person, helped everyone stay in touch. The group of four have made arrangement to all hook up now and then.
Now everyone is out. Discharged, Retired, and all live in Las Vegas. As two married couples.
It was a double ceremony The Little Chapel on Strip and twenty family and friends. All most all their kids. Jeff and Mark Mike and Alex Rather than going on a honeymoon they send out invasions to the all current and former USS Jimmy Carter to stop by and visit whenever in Las Vegas.
