    I worked right across the passageway from the radio shack in the CIC. RD2 Donald Capron also know as Cap. I also went to fleet training school in San Diego before the recommissioning. I was an RDSN then and made RD3 and RD2 while I was aboard. I replaced RD1 Robert Shaw as lead Radarman just after we got underway for our second West Pac cruise. I remember you, Melman, Chief Winters, ETC Clouse, and several others. Do you remember Shaw, Tebo, Christensen, Corder, Dobis, Grant, Block, and Haskins? Send me an email cowboystrucking@yahoo.com and I’ll get back to you. By the way, do you know if Captain Kohler is still alive and how to contact him?

    I was aboard Ashtabula from 1968 thru July 1971. I remember your dad but didn’t know him. I was Lead Radarman from 1970 thru 1971. The crew probably remembers me as Cap.
