OS1 Tristan Sharkey reflects on his journey from his initial days as a seaman to arriving aboard Wasp as a new sailor.
MEDITERRANEAN SEA — The alarm blares at 2200 hours, slicing through the quiet hum of the amphibious assault ship USS Wasp’s (LHD 1) late evening routine. Operations Specialist 1st Class Tristan Sharkey stirs from his rack in the red lit berthing compartment, the familiar scent of saltwater and metal filling his senses. As he pulls on his coveralls and slides on his boots, his mind runs through the tasks of the day: maintenance checks, operations briefings, and ensuring he stands a proper watch.
