It was an enjoyable time. I spent all my post-training years (1971-1973) in Wilmington, NC, in a port safety unit. My colleagues and I inspected waterfront facilities, monitored oil and other hazardous material transfer operations, and enforced federal water pollution prevention regulations. We also investigated oil pollution spills when they occurred. My twin sons were born in Wilmington; the family greatly enjoyed the local beaches.
