Years Served: 1968 to 1972…Shipmates I was in B Div #4 fireroom for the first six months, got lucky and was transferred to the Oil Shack where I spent the rest of my time. (You guys remember taking a shower… you were all soaped up and the shower water would stop…… That was us!) I worked with a lot of great guys, Rags, King, Brit, Henchman, on and on. Some of them are still my best friends. Irvin Riley, I read your note….. Kenny Davis, Fred Talockro two of my good friends….. Where are you guys? Some of the best years of my life, I’d do it all over again!
