On Wed, 04AUG00 Darlene and I had the honor of dining with Jim & Janet Cole of Harrington, DE. Although we never served together, it's just another example of the great friedships that have come about fron the Shipmate's Organization. An enjoyable evening of reminiscing followed.
We will do it again this coming Tuesday.
Thank you Jim & Janet Cole

I was aboard for the re-comission and was assigned to Fox Division and assisted on the W-2 guidance radar.
I remember spending most of our time at the South end of Broad St with an ocassional side trip to Roosevelt Roads and that we had a real problem hitting anything. The Ship was crawling with engineers from RCA and Sperry.
I went thru part of the log and could not find any familiar names, but I will keep looking.
Thanks' to Soupy for helping my wife with the hat.

Trying to find anyone who was aboard the Galveston during Westpac 1965. My brother Frank D. French was on the Galveston then and we need some help doing some research for a claim. Please contact with any info. Thanks and bless you all!

I have just looked at the video of ADM Montgomery's speech at the plaque dedication ceremony. What a wonderful speech it was and I am so glad to be able to hear it again and I applaud Keith and Bob for posting it, "Thanks guys". I kind of wished that there were more pictures of the people who attended but still it was a great job and I would urge everyone to listen to it.
