Crew 1 of 3 supervisor.. Great duty for the last year of service. 3 months in Med, 9 in North Atlantic. BLUE NOSE, with 2 Gail 10 and 1 Gail 8 storms. Out for 28 days in a different port for 7, each month. Never hit a military port. Felt like a tourist 7 days a month.

So many great memories. Did a tour on the Bowditch as an ETN-3 (NavAids) before heading to Pearl to the USS Patrick Henry, SSBN 599B for 2 years then 5 months at NAVASTROGRU-C in Hawaii tracking NAVSAT and installing the first GPS system. Did 22 years at Northrop now at Intrepid Solutions. I owe the Navy everything career-wise. Had read about eLORAN supplementing GPS and wanted to find a picture of the WPN3. Found this great site! I found our XO (LT Gunderson) in DC but no one else.

Never served with you guys, never knew anyone who did. During my time on Guam, sent many, many encrypted Morse code messages to Michelson. All of us at the COMMSTA had top secret with broad need-to-know attachments (we did handle message traffic), but none of us could ever find out anything except we weren't to mention your name outside the message center. Enjoyed reading your site tremendously; another item off a 68-year old's bucket list! Thanks for doing this. Fair wind and following seas.

I'm looking for a Corpman named Max Fuentes, and a Lt JG. from Dallas Tx.,but the name escapes me? We had a great time aboard the ship in the North Atlantic. I spent one of the Best X-mas's in Edinborough Scotland , when we put together all the Cartoons for under privileged Children. I was a ETR-3
