As lay eucharistic minister, did you ever get to preside over a
wedding? Or give last rites? Or raise the dead?

Only a priest can perform the sacraments.

Does that include performing a service of burial and/or last rites? I mean,
I guess it does, but that causes me to wonder how burials at sea were/are
handled when a priest isn't on the ship.

Burials at sea don't happen anymore except by special arrangement and
request. Last rites (extreme unction as it was once known) can only be
performed by a priest. "Back in the day", I assume that any last rites
performed on Catholic sailors buried at sea were done symbolically ex
post facto since they could not maintain the dead body on the ship.
And I'm sure there were few priests that went to sea... maybe a few on
occasion in the Spanish, French, Italian, or Portuguese navies, but
none, I feel safe to say, in the American Navy, and positively none in
the British Navy.

If I could raise the dead, do you think there's any chance that Aubrun
would have lost that game yestiddy?

Bo Jackson's not dead yet, and didn't use use up his eligibility?

I was referring to Aubrun's defense.
