Have any former U.S. Navy, USCG officers on RP successfully applied former active duty sea time to the Inland "Six Pack" license?

So here's the deal. I've racked up some pretty good sea time while on AD, much of it on the bridge as a qualified OOD. I'm looking into the experience requirements for the OUPV, inland certification (i.e. the "Six Pack") which is pretty much the bare-minimum one needs for any small boat skipper job inland (think tour boats, emergency tow, etc.)

The CG requires 90 of the total 360, 4-hr days to be within the last three years (which really is hard to do...but not impossible).

My question is, has anyone successfully applied former sea time based of their own records, without CO signature or a formal "at sea" form?

My ultimate goal is to give myself the "mins" for looking for part-time, seasonal crew work in the next 36 months (kinda looking for the next big adventure!)
