The only memories I have of Newport are of the really short Sea Detail and the F'ing never ending "Newport Shuffle" (you have to be a Deckape to understand)

And it was colder'n a Welldiggers a** in the Klondike too.

How about the Lighthouse?

Being a line captain on the flight deck of an FFG, I know about the Newport Shuffle.
