  When we're standing at the pearly gates, and all of a sudden you hear somebody bitching about anything and everything, you know who's there to greet you. Bitching Bob Elsaesser! Rest in peace brother.

  I want to pass along some news that I learned of recently. I was informed of the death of Bob Elsaesser aka BB. Bob served in VA-85 during the period from '77 to '79. He passed in 2003 at the age of 45. Our thoughts go to his wife Luann and 2 children. Luann said that she remembers Bob "bitchin" for many years that followed his dedicated Naval service.
  Lets all remember BB who gave some great memories. -Al

  Wow! This is crazy. Al I can't believe you are finding all these people. it is great to hear from all of you. Paisan you crazy bastard how are you? Stempf it is good to hear from you, how is the wife.
  I can not believe you guys remember all this stuff. Here is one. Do you remember renting the U-haul truck before the Med cruise and driving around Florida (Daytona Beach, Disney World, Coco beach). We had some good times.
