I SWEAR it looks like
RobR1205 in that picture with the coast guard troops that rescued Russel Crowe!!
I am so completely not sure.....LOOKS alot like him, but now I am not so sure. but I about busted out when
I saw the photo on NBC news, lol.
Tough call....I guess Rob is going to have to settle it.

The resemblance is uncanny, but this was the caption of that same photo on foxnews.com:
"Sept. 2, 2012: A photo provided by the U.S. Coast Guard shows Russell Crowe, center, with Coast Guard petty officers Robert Swieciki, left, and Thomas Watson. (AP2012)"

Yeah by the time I posted it I as no longer very sure...A little research would have helped me not post a thread, lol.
But what the hell, its slow around here anyway. I like Russell Crowe in the master and commander film,
hopefully one day, FILMS. Face is different anyway. Our boy has a babyface, lol

My understanding is that Rob has been impersonating CG personnel for years in order to make additional income. Now you've outed him and he'll have to stop the practice.
Well played while it lasted Rob. Hope it doesn't cut in to your cigar budget too much.

If only that really was me! But thanks for thinking of me Brad! Unfortunately, the academic year is in full swing here at the academy, so the only thing I'm "protecting" these days are my grades...21 credits is going to be an @$$ kicker

In a way, I'm glad Rob wasn't one of those guys . . . Crowe might've thrown a phone at him!

Rob is at the Coast Guard Academy in New London, CT. Since he's going Officer, I'm promise he had nothing to do with any actual Coastie seamanship, besides slaving on the Barque Eagle

Yeah... heh. About the only time the likes of us can sorta (unofficially) outrank a future officer are those summer showboat tours on the Eagle.

The rescuers face is too round anyway.
Speaking of rescue....you should watch this video.
I went ahead and edited the original and slowed it down
so you could see all the brutal face-planting and the seemingly
endless supply of flying sunglasses, lol....clicky the piccie
