Hello Cookie;
I hope your feeling better. The last I heard from you, you said that you were not feeling well and you were going to bed. haven't heard anything from you since. Sure hope your doing better bud. If not get well soon!
"WOW" another wow. I was born on April 14 1942 just about 4 months and a week after the attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1941.
In my navy career I was involved in the Bay of Pigs with Cuba, the Cuban missle crisis, Viet Nam, a secret mission into the Indian ocean in 1964 known as "Concord Squadron one, then, came dessert storm, dessert shield ,Just Cause Panama with Manuel Noriega and that just about brings me up to my active duty service in the Navy. Figured that was about enough for me.
I'm sorry to hear that your not feeling well.. I hope you'll get better soon mate I do hope that you are enrolled in the veterans health care program, its free to all veterans. Won't cost you a cent,
thank you for your many years of honorable service "Cookie'
I was known as Dino while in the service.

All you have to do is to join Navy Vets with an e-mail address and when a new member comes on board you'll get a notice from Navy vets with their info.. Hopes this helps youi bud.
How old are you now ? Are you married, any kids?
