Memories For This Unit

Best Friends
Howard Richard Veal HN aboard ship. We have kept in contact for many years. He retired as an HMCM and worked at the veteran's Hospital in Birmingham, Alabama.

Worst Moment
Had to go home on emergency leave. I lost my DAD in a traffic accident.
   

Other Memories
Alex Kazan CS1, his pies, cakes and fresh baked bread were great. He taught me how to decorate cakes.
