 Additional Information
What are you doing now:

Semi-retired after 26 years on the Wilmington PD - as the Senior Master Sergeant. Have three lovely daughters who keep me busy and my first grandchild on the way.
Would like to hear from shipmates who served with me on the USS Farragut DLG-6 ('67-'68) or the USS Power DD-839 ('68-'69)
If all goes well I will be attending the Tin Can Sailors - Pennsylvania/Delaware - Bull Session - August 7, 2010.
