Right after I finished my Army stint, my parents were working in Kodiak at the Pacific Pearl shrimp cannery as cooks.
I worked on the pealers for about two months. Shrimp were  coming in by the boat load, we had to crawl down in the hold and shovel into a shrimp to brailer and then when the tubs were full we ran the pealers.  Got hammered a couple of times at the Beachcombers bar.  Did that for about three weeks and moved on to Homer. From there I worked for a for a company called Offshore Navigation and spent several years all over the world. .
