1st "tour" was on the USS Gridley. #2 was the 4 months |

We don't really know - he could have been counting his year on the Gridley as a "tour" - but, that would have been 3 years and two or three WESTPAC's to have been a "tour" in the real Navy.
Someone here has speculated that he counted his time with COSDIV11 as one tour and his time with COSDIV14 as the second. 
Please go through the subsequent pages of this forum and the Research and Resources forum to find further discussion on this topic if it interests you - it's been heavily discussed, here.
