Years Served: Nov 1976 to Nov 1980…I remember the beginning of the city and the crew , it was a lot of hard work but great fun only because of the wonderful crew. We had great times together and will never forget them. Thanks George for arranging the reunion, sorry I didn’t get to attend. Maybe next time.

Years Served: Oct 1983 – Oct 1989…The absolute best crew and sub I served on. I also served on the Seadragon (SSN 584) and the Aspro (SSN 648) and they never even came close to how tight the crew of The City was. I went there as a QM3 and left as a QMC. I still keep in touch with a few guys from that era. Namely, The Skimmer, Hairdog, Derek Desa, Jimmy Fennessy and Zak. Unfortunately The City lost a good brother to a car accident and he went on eternal patrol – HMCM Craig DOC Carson. Rest in peace my good brother and save us a spot next to you in heaven.
