John -
I had the pleasure of meeting Commander Vogt and his lovely wife at the last Pacific Beach Reunion (have them every 3 years since 2001 - next one is 2013). He is a true officer and gentleman. He put on a terrific power point presentation at the reunion, and we got to tour the inside of the TE building. First time I have stepped into it since 1961, when I was transferred to San Nicolas Island. I was at Pac Beach from July '59-Feb '61.
It is amazing that your son and the Commander share the same name. Best to you and your family. Please give my regards to the Commander - tell him Irv DeMatties (one of the Pac Beach reunion organizers) wishes to thank him again for the tour through the TE building.
A hearty thanks and BZ to the folks who worked on the recently published newsletter.

Probably the best issue of "The Cable" yet. Thank you to everyone involved in putting this together and getting it distro'd to everyone. It made for some very interesting reading.
