Kelly,
Yes, I definitely hope to see you at the reunion, because I know if I see you in person, I'll be better able to remember our aquaintance. You probably remember me for always getting in trouble on the beach (hey, I was only 18 years old back then). Do you recall the one incident when a Cochrane crew member mistakenly went aboard (was allowed by OOD, despite ship's stickers to the contrary) the USS Towers (sister ship), docked parallel to the 21, then got into an altercation/scuffle with an indvidual he assumed to have taken over his rack (wrong ship, hence wrong rack). Anyway this guy eventually ended up handcuffed to the Towers Missle Launcher, until the MAA from 21 picked this poor guy up. The next morning the C.O. of the Towers was being belled aboard and I knew my butt was in a sling then. Well, I won't mention any names, but, I know this character pretty well. The things we learn from life's experiences....it will be a pleasure to reintroduced to you after so many years and learning experiences..Sal
