My Apologies
To those who have
Sent their names and additional information that I have not
added yet.
The project has become very large and even though I work on it almost every day, it is impossible for me to keep up.
I will continue to add the names and information as quickly as I can.

Thank You All
For Your Support

66 – 67 cruise on the Shangri-La
68 – 69 cruise on the Independence
Made 3 WestPac cruises, 1 Pineapple
(Hawaii) cruise and 2 Med cruises.
Was on 7 carriers in 9 years.
Enjoyed the Indy cruise because I was
in charge and we had the most traps
of any squadron aboard with no accidents.
