Worst Moment Surviving Typhoon Pamila, one of the worst storms to hit Guam in 20 years (at that time). Juat about wrecked the entire island.
Other Memories Participating in "Operation Newlife" in 1975, careing for the influx of thousands of South Vietnamese refugees after their country fell to the communist North Vietnamese.
