Ship Story:

Reported to the ship early fall 1968 with Joe Hubbs, Bill Kettle, Don Tyk and others. Assigned to refrigeration shop, which defined my occupation all of my adult life. Thank you USN for the training!
Great memories of New Years Eve in Barcelona, Christmas in France, and other memories involving a bunch of great guys.
