We all think during our time in the Navy that we have one special ship and one special skipper. Well, I like all the first commission had that privilege, and its a sad day to hear of the passing over of our skipper.
At the reunion we all had a few minutes with him before the start of dinner......it was like pushing the years back in the split of a second.
One of the lads remarked to the skipper..........sir, "you were a great Captain and we would have followed you anywhere you wanted us to go"........... there is nothing else to say............. time served vg sup
