ASTORIA, Ore. — While the crew of the Coast Guard Cutter Steadfast welcomed a new food specialist on Thursday, they admitted today that they were a little weirded out that he did not do it for the $40,000 signing bonus, sources confirmed.
Cmdr. Willie Hudson told reporters that shortly after he and the crew received SNFS Terry Thomas, the cook began preparing for breakfast, whistling the Kill Bill tune, and asking everyone how their day was.
“I guess I’m glad that he decided to become a cook for such a noble reason, but at the same time, I have to say, it was a little unnatural,” Hudson said of the motivated food specialist’s presence in the galley, which he cleaned himself. “He even seemed excited about our upcoming patrol, stating that it’s his favorite thing — to cook us meals while sailing the high seas.”
