Good times - Good times
After I left active duty in 89' & started college, I kind of lost touch with most of my shipmates with the exception of EM2 Lonny Mallery and RM3 TomTerry. I've kept in touch with them from day one. Lonny's out west near LakeTahoe and Tom-T is out near Springfield Mass. Within the last year I've reconnected with some other shipmates through military.com including: EM2 Edens, RM2 Pepin, EM3 "Tupelo" Russell
What year did the ole' 1192 decommission and were you still there when she was "done"??
I notice on my commands that the pic of the Spartanburg is not the Spartanburg.
Glad to see on on the site. Perhaps we can get other Sparkle City citizens to join.
