To all Navy veterans interested:
I was stationed on an oiler the U.S.S. Truckee from 1977 to 1980.
I worked in the boiler room. Since I've been out of the Navy I have been working at a boiler installation and repair company in Cleveland, Ohio.
I have just recently discovered this website and I think this site might be able to help me.
The boiler company where I work is in desperate need of boiler mechanics. We service production and heating boilers in factories, schools, Government facilities, etc.
The owner of our company understands how hard it is to find people that have any knowledge with boilers. He pays us exceedingly well with many benefits including 401K because he wants to keep people when he finds them.
I am hoping this sight may reach the right people, where using other methods to find boiler mechanics have not been successful.
If anyone reading this is interested please respond to me on this website or email me directly at jerry@boilerspecialists.com. The contact email address I am using for this website is my wife's email, as it is easier to use her email when I'm at home.
In addition to using this site to search for boiler mechanics, I would also like to talk to other shipmates from the Truckee if there any out there.
Jerry Rish
