does anyone know where I can locate McCoy BM1
He was aboard probably as a plank owner. He was still there when I left 12/66.

He was bm1 when I came aboard and was made Chief while I was in Deck Division. He was rough& gruff and scared the crap out of all us newbies.

Gosh I don't know how he could still be kickin. I'm a plank owner and will be 65 in November. Don't remember how many hash marks he had when I met him but a few. He may still be around. He seemed tough enough to make a long haul of it.

I am not looking for Mccoy BM1 but for jim brown we served tohether from 64 to 66. Also I am looking for any one who was on the second wespac cruise July 1966 to dec. 1966

Rooster, I was at the same time 1968-1971.  You are right he did scared the newbes.  He made Cheif in 1970 and left the ship as "PLANK OWNER" will in Japan I think
