I worked the Interservice at NAS P'cola last season. NASP has a real nice softball complex just off the water. It's just hot as hell there in August even with a good breeze. You must know a couple of my acquaintences, John Russo and Willie Howell.

Yep ... the same university and the same mall. Mall hasn't changed much (I think it stays open until 8:00 now), but the university and the area around it has really developed nicely. Beautiful campus and softball field.
We live in Pace -- between NAS Whiting and Pensacola -- you wouldn't recognize this area. Huge changes in the last decade!
John Russo is our NSA UIC. Great guy (for a Yankee fan). I've called many games with Willie Howell -- what a character.
On a side note, I think having a high number of military veterans makes the P'cola umpire associations much more professional -- at least compared to other places I've been.
