Yeah I remember the ( MadHatter ) If I remember right he told me he was from Philadelphia, Pa. Because I’m orignally from Pa. Iwas born in Carlisle, PA. In fact I have a few pictures that took with the ( MadHatter ) my pictures. down at the Beach in Honalulu. Not sure if I got the spelling right. I got one picture of the ( MadHatter ) along with Joe Herman, Karl Leibe, Nick Wohlfarth & Ray Sparber. Do you remember any of those guys? They all hung out with my younger brother Scott Witter. AND Rick Timmons and Steve Marmarou hung out with those guys also. Anyways we would hang out down at the beach with our boom box jamming to some old school rock – n – roll music and drinking some beer accross from the bottle shop where we would buy our beer which was called FT DERUSSEY, AND THEY HAD A BAR UPSTAIRS ABOVE WHERE THAT BOTTLE SHO AND CLOTHING STORE WHER YOU COULD ALSO BUY BEACH MATS, SUN TAN LOTION MUNCHIES ALONG WITH BEACH T-SHIRTS AND TANK TOPS. PLUS STYERFOAM COOLERS TO CARRY YOUR BEER IN. So does any of this remind you of being out on liberty down at the beach. WE WOULD ALL GO OUT BAR HOPPING AFTER THE SUN WENT DOWN AFTER WE WERE WEEL TANNED UP AFTER LAYING OUT IN THE SUN DRINKING BEER. tALK TO YOU LATER SHIPMATE.
