Re: 50 years

Is that OT3 Price of Centerville? :). Jane, your generous comments are so much appreciated. George made a big difference for many of us; anybody who can be referred to by just a first name and everybody knows who it is speaks volumes. (George was also known as the Crusher by a certain OT2 in Kef. He was scared to death of George and I talked him into walking into an oral board and stating " first of all, nobody in here can intimidate me". I still can't believe he did it!)
I actually do have a good sense of my standing with you because its mutual.
Always has been, always will be. Please give Art my best!

Re: 50 years

On 23 Feb it was 58 years since I left WI for boot camp. At that time I had no idea what I was going to do in the Navy. I was a farm boy who was suddenly jolted into the 20th century. I was very lost the first two years but with the teaching of many oceanographic types over the years, they helped me become what I was destined to become. I owe a great deal of gratitude to many people who not only taught me what SOSUS was all about but also taught me great lessons about life and leadership. As a teacher, I now still use many of these lessons with my students. Thank you all who helped me through this phase of my life.
