 Additional Information
What are you doing now:

I retired from OHSU in April 2015. Was thinking about doing traveling work but at age 65, I just did not have it in me to do that. Will be working part time but not at OHSU due to it receiving retirement pay from there. Also going to play more golf as there are two golf courses with a half mile from us.

Volunteer at Portland, Oregon USO three times a week to keep busy and to get out of the house. Have also been volunteering with Homes for Our Troops and Wounded Warriors projects in the Portland area.

   
Other Comments:

Like sleeping in, but I am working in our yard everyday and doing things like going to nurseries, and just enjoying not working full time.

Memories For This Unit

Best Friends
Steve Jones Tom Furth Frank Majeski Gary Dahlstrom

Best Moment
The Uhlmann was a Reserve training ship. All NRCs in the state of Washington would do weekend drills on board and we went on several weekend underway periods to Bellingham and back to NRC Tacoma

   

Other Memories
5 of us renting a motel room in Bellingham, getting some beer and some being a little drunk. I remember Frank Majeski crawling out of the motel room on his hands and knees. Shore Patrol pulled up and told us to report back to the ship.
