Ed,

Congratulations ! Nice to see someone watching out for retirees.

Ed......always knew there was a problem with you. Hard to figure it out in the days when all we wore were dungerhauls. Nice to see you come clean.

Congrat's Ed. Well deserved. We all knew of your service prior to IUSS. I think there might be a few medals or campaign ribbons in store for Nick and I as well. Maybe we should check.... But we need to get the Canadian government to agree that their EM Club in Bermuda was a Hazardous Combat Area in 1974 and 75! I know it was!

I spent 8 weeks in New Londan, Ct in 1961. Met a Conadian Sub Crew training to take over one of our subs. It was hazardous duty at the EM Club and any bar they were in in town. I have seen them fight each other when no one else would fight with them.
Ask for hazardous duty back pay if you spent one night with them drinkin.

I get the feeling that the Canadians we work with today aren't from the same breeding stock...

Here here. I agree Nick, there always was a problem with Ed. at least at first when he became an OT. Ha ha. Congrats Ed.
