Doug and everyone else , was thinking about the Ashtabula (which means all the characters) and found this site. Its been such a long time but a lot of the memories are clear. Although I’m sure nobody looks the same. I’m living near Boulder, Colorado now after many years in of all places Long Beach Ca. Ended up working many years at the Port of Los Angeles and watched Todd Shipyards close and the area developed into a container terminal. It would be great to hear from you and tell tall tales from the “old days”. Mike Lemke , p.s. I did hear from Riley in the early 1970’s and he had re-enlisted and that was the last I heard.
