Really ? Why rabbit meat ?

On long transits across the Pacific we had nothing at all to do, so it
was a
good time to read, work on correspondence courses, etc. I still have a
water-stained economics textbook and assignments that I typed on the IBM
Selectric we had.


I knew a nukie-poo (spell ?) who did a good part of his
PhD in statistics on a sub.

That was only on one of my trips. I always figured the officer in charge of
the mess must have gotten a real good deal on rabbit, or maybe had a
girlfriend whose family raised rabbits. It didn't taste bad - it was just
surprising how much of it there was. The food was good and there was plenty
of it. And the cook couldn't hide.
