Billie, here I am in an "action" shot, my favorite duty station, Liberty Call. This is a port of call somewhere in WESTPAC, 1968 (I'm third from left)


This is the destroyer I spent most of my time on during my enlistment, the USS Hull (DD945). My brother served his entire four years aboard the Hull, '65 through '68. I was aboard her for two of those years. My first ship was the Higbee (DD806) where I served in the latter part of '65 and part of '66 and I finished out my last few months in the Navy aboard the Wiltsie (DD716) in '69.

Go deep, stay long ! But make sure the surfaces equal the dives.
