Took the boat ride on the Thomaston, seasick first four days out till they put me in sick bay. Spilled 5gals. of OD green while painting trucks on the upper deck. Helped camo a MIKE boat in the well deck with that. Went to 8th Comm after Nam, same guys for the most part. Retired from USMCR as MGySgt. Comm Chief for 4th MAW. Went to the show in Saudia Arabia as a Gunny with a local HUEY unit. Some things never changed. Kept in touch with Gary Vietor in Michigan and Ralph Haas in Davenport, Iowa, both Const. Plt. troops. Went to boot camp with Wayne Schlosser in MT, Eugene Telenko Const. Plt. truck driver and Gary Vietor. We all reported to 7th Comm at the Stumps in Nov. 65

Was in Const. Plt from Feb 67 to May 69. Transferred to Camp LeJeune to 4/10 Lima Co. Transferred again to Futema Okinawa to HMM-165 helicopter squadron. Went on a 6 month float and at one time, got about 4 miles out from 5th Comm beach. Could see the compound and guys on the beach playing volleyball etc.
