This is still referred to as PSD Afloat on the DEERS website at 1837 Morris street by Gate 2. Easy in and out and walk-ins are super fast if you time it right. Never had an issue and there is a large parking lot right beside the building Z-133. The office is hard left as soon as you walk in. You can make an appointment online which I highly recommend so you don't wait half the day.

Going to the Burger King or Bowling alley was the highlight of our time off. Outside the base you could get a tattoo, get drunk and off course if you were a E- and UP they would sell you a car at a 29% interest rate. The place has changed a lot of the better, but it will always hold a special place in my heart.

As such, it is appropriate that the first battle of armored ships took place here. This was history's first duel between ironclad warships and the dawn of a new age of naval warfare. The marker reads, "In Hampton Roads, southward and a mile or two offshore, the Virginia (Merrimac) and the Monitor fought their engagement, March 9, 1862. The day before the Virginia destroyed the Cumberland and Congress, wooden ships of the Union navy." The Merrimack was built in the North. It was a conventional steam frigate that had been captured by the Confederates from the Norfolk navy yard and rechristened the Virginia. Commanded by Commodore Franklin Buchanan and supported by several other Confederate vessels, the Virginia achieved a decisive victory against a Union fleet of wooden warships off on March 8, destroying the sloop Cumberland and the 50-gun frigate Congress while the frigate Minnesota ran aground. The Union ironclad Monitor, under the command of Lieutenant John Worden, arrived the same night. Soon after 8:00am, the Virginia opened fire on the Minnesota, and the Monitor appeared. They passed back and forth on opposite courses. Both crews lacked training; firing was ineffective. The Monitor could fire only once in seven or eight minutes but was faster and more maneuverable than her larger opponent. The Virginia's spectacular success on March 8 had not only marked an end to the day of wooden navies but had also thrilled the South and raised the false hope that the Union blockade might be broken. On May 9, 1862, following the Confederate evacuation of Norfolk, the Virginia was destroyed by its crew. The Monitor was lost during a gale off Cape Hatteras on December 31, 1862. The area hasn't forgotten the battle. The nearby Monitor-Merrimac Memorial Bridge-Tunnel https://www.yelp.com/biz/monitor-merrimac-memorial-bridge-tunnel-newport-news?hrid=gSbDZSSqV3q73SNoT6ma4g was built in 1992 and carries Interstate 664 between Suffolk and Newport News.

I saw a passport center where you can get your passport done. It was so fresh and so clean and vibrant with colors. There's a maker space you can do an orientation for and learn how to use the cricket or the 3-D art, printer or learn how to use a sewing machine. They also had an ancestry section. I'm looking forward to doing some more research and try to do the ancestry maybe next time I've also booked a passport appointment for next week. I'll update with how it went.
