Mess with the Eagle and you'll get the Claw

is what I said to a very concentrated A/B Jonny when he tried to prevent cutting our bosun in his ear during a haircut session on the aft deck. Our bosun has a large eagle tattood on his arm, I don't know why you'll see so many eagles at sea. A mermaid would be more in line, but eastern guys apparently love tigers, eagles and dragons.
This bosun will retire next year after more or less 40 years at sea of which 25 consecutive years on the Husky and Retriever alone.
