My name is Art James EM3 assigned to E division. My Navy years were the best years of my life, I served all of them on board the Lexington. I made life long friends and see some to this day. Just had a visit last weekend from Chief Bob Denny and his wife Karen, who I have not seen since 1981. Will never forget New Orleans, Dry dock in Boston,and Gitmo. If anyone ever hears of what ever happened to EM 3 Ed Thomas, I sure would like to know. Take care shipmates.

My name is Melvin "Mel" Frisch YN3, i served on board from June1972 to June 1975. It was
a great duty station, I made some great friends. I still talk to several.
You are right Art the early 1970's on the Lex were a lot of fun. Oh to be a young GMG3 on liberty again. If I remember right Pensacola got more snow than we did in Boston that winter.
Take care shipmate.
