Jim -
Regarding your post on the Nov 2013 Cable Newsletter, and reading it "cover-to-cover", I echo Nick's comments: BZ to you, the entire staff and all those who contributed. Not only were all the articles well done, but it may help me connect to a former shipmate from long ago during my first tour in Bermuda (1966-1969)- Dan Blaney who was referenced in the article by Dan Murphy about the NavFac Nantucket reunion.
Blaney, myself and others were great fishing buddies. As I recall, he was transferred to Nantucket while I was still in BDA. I plan to contact Dan (Murf) Murphy to see if he has contact information for Blaney.
Once again, my "hat's off" to all who made this possible.
