Great site that brings back many rememberances of the good old days. The T-AGS ships were a once in a life opertunity for truly unique duty.

I have some pictures to scan and will send them along

You did a great job putting this website together! I have learned more about these ships than I learned when I was aboard the USNS Michelson.

I had a great experience aboard the Bowditch. I will see if I can dig up our crew photo. I do know we did not wear our dress whites.

nice website earl. glad i could contribute. i will send those slides to you one day.

Great site. I'm still finding more pictures. How about a section of how we look today?

Thanks Earl, a great site.

Thanks Earl, for putting this together. Great web site for TAGS sailors.

Thanks Earl for putting up such a great site! Thanks for the memories! It will be interesting to see who logs in! Hope to hear from some of you old swabees. Michelson was my first ship, what an experience! Yokohama, Yokosuka, motorcycle trip for one month during the yards, then Sasebo. Went to Nagasaki.. wasn't too welcome there, go figure! Then off to the Dutton for two years; loved Barcelona! Also enjoyed 6 weeks in a hotel in Marseilles during the yards. We drank the hotel dry!!
