  • Thank you for approving my registration.  It has been quite a while since I last visited and had a surprise trying to login the other day. As an FYI.....I originally signed up with this organization on Mar 5, 2009.  At that time the signon was a userid and password.  My userid was bigkano.  Haven't used the site for awhile and when I tried I was no longer a member and had to signup again.  On the old site I had a picture, profile, etc.  I think originally it was just for Yokosuka sailors and then expanded to what it is now.  I was always interested in finding some of my buddies during my time on the Landing Ship Squadron Nine Commander's Staff.  My time in Yokosuka was August 1968 to July 1969. 

  • Thank you!

  • Good website and well done. I was active duty from 1963 - 1967. I was an AO3 with attack squadron VA-106. We flew A4-C&E models.  My squadron was aboard USS Forrestal in summer of July 29, 1967 when the fire that killed 139 sailors happened. I received a 2 week early discharge from active duty.  In the fire 8 of my squadron mates died. I learned about the fire after I was a civilian again. We VA-106 Gladiators do have a reunion group. I will advise the leaders of our reunion group to link up with you.

  • Nice to here from you. I spent fourteen years in Groton on and off, three different boats. Finally retired off Narwhal here in Charleston in 92.

  • Thank you for bringing that to my attention, I have fixed it, should have been 1979.
