Proud to serve on a great ship with a great crew. Truck driver for 35 years, 6 kids, 9 grandchildren and a terrific wife for 52 years! Shout out to Admiral Milligan, W.C. Smith, Wychoff, Jones, Talbert, Bounds, Marcello, Silva, Schert, Hawk. Only one regret, that I cannot take one last cruise on a great lady! Best Ops. Gang. “E”

Served on the Ault from 1965 – 1968 , RD2 loved the ship & crew , the best times of my life was with them good or bad , yes I was one of the Magnificent Seven or as I called them the Bacardi For Lunch Bunch , went AWOL from Ault & went to USS Leary out of Norfolk , Virginia . Went a little insane for awhile but came home & have been successful in the oil & gas business . Would love to here from anybody , Biss did you ever have to shave , I remember that peach fuzz you used to have . Would really like to hear from Getz RD2 .
