I met and had a meal with him in 1989. He was very entertaining, and very nice, and I remember he cussed a few times, which I found odd.
Well he was a sailor...
How fascinating!
He’s probably more down to earth than many realize.
Good story. . my Post 119 describes the time I met him and dined with him at a formal event in London (Guildhall).

He was a sailor LOL - seeing his obit he really lived so many great events of the 20th century. What a life, I bet he was a very interesting man.
