Sandy and I are long time members of "Teams Of Our Lady" TOOL. A family oriented small faith group. www.teamsofourlady.org/ We first joined in 1982 and took a few years off recently as we moved about the country, and are now once again active in a new TEAM here in Richmond. Our daughter and her husband actually belong to the TEAM we began in, none of the former members remain.
Sandy is a part of PEO, Philanthropic Educational Organization, www.peointernational.org/ an awesome group doing great things.
Myself, I am looking to cleaning the mess that I have been accumulating over the years. I would like to digitize my photos, a couple of thousand slides "O boy!" More prints than that..task 1. Number 2 work or restablishing myself as a coin collector. Don't know how that will work? Now that so much is available in music, I can build my personal libray. Lots to do!

Bass, Larry, CPO
1970-1972, CT-9186, Naval Security Group Activity (NSGA) Keflavik, Iceland
Best Moment Daughter number 2 born December 17, 1971
Other Memories Keflavik was a great duty assignment. After a year we felt that we wanted to extend and did prepare the paper work. In the mean time Chief Steve Drago started talking up ADCOP. So I submitted that paper work. ADCOP came through before time for an extension.
Selected for ADCOP May 1972
Have you ever requested duty with brother? Well my brother did. He graduated at the top of his class in RM A school in Bainbridge. The duty assignment program was to post the available slots and allow the class to sign up by rank in the class. Harry said that there were 9 billets in Pensacola. Being at the top, he found that there were 3 slots in Keflavik. He took one. One of the requirements for assignment with dependents in Iceland was that you had to have a contract on an apartment before your wife was allowed to travel. We found a great spot on the main drag of Keflavik, got his contract and every thing was in motion. His wife Carol arrived three days before he did. (Just a side smile, her seat mate was another girl from St. Joseph, Mo. they did not know each other. They did have one thing in common though, they had both dated the same guy. My brother!) As wives are want to do, she did not like the apartment. Later found that it was the color of the bathroom not the apartment. But she would not move in. They stayed with us a couple of weeks and then the base temp housing. (Since we were in the process of packing for transfer to ADCOP in Pensacola) Remember the other girl on the airplane. The four of them shared an apartment for a while.
