"Hi Don,
I loved my days on the Frontier. I did 3 cruises to Hawaii. By the time I got aboard she was considered too old to go all the way to Westpac. The ship won the E award 3 times so they decided to put her in mothballs. That was a sad day. …"

"Glad to hear you are getting it under control. I have type 2 myself all though I keep it under control with half a pill a day and no sugar. The trouble is almost everything has sugar in it. I need to watch the fat and cholesterol too. If it has…"
"Hey Wendell! How you doing? I took a look at the pic of you on the Hector and of course I remember you. You are the first guy I found on here that I served with."
"Welcome to the page Phil. I started this page quite awhile ago but you and I are the only ones so far. I joined the Frontier Association but haven't been to a reunion yet."
"I just reconnected with a molder from 1967-1969. I recently found ML2 Jim Culver. He was on the USS Frontier with me and then went to the USS Bryce Canyon. I tried to get him to join the group. Anyone else who knew him, I will pass along the…"
"Hi Jim,
I was in A school in 1965 finishing up around August. I think it was called class 2-65, being the second class to complete in 1965. The instructors were ML1 Saylor, ML1 Monaghan and MLC Pellatier. They were all great guys"

"Did you ever come across an ML2 Jim Culver? He was on the Bryce Canyon Starting about July of 68. He was from Catoosa and might live in Shawnee right now. I was his best man back in 68 before going to the Bryce Canyon. We were both on the Frontier…"
"And where is Holmes today? Anyone know. I think I went to A school with him, have to check if it was the same guy."
"Some of you mention using bug juice on the pouring deck. We used Petrobond sand on the Frontier and it kept the deck rust free. It also was dust free so the foundry always was easy to keep clean. I remember some Captain giving a tour of the ship…"
"Are Repair ships are gone too? Anyone know which was the last survivor?"
"I made one,painted it, Then gave one of the guys coffee in it. Of course the spoon wouldn't come out"
"It is amazing how few of us there are here. ML A school graduated abour 3 classes a year. My class was only 7 guys but I think there were on the average at least 10. When was the last class? I would guess at least 10 years ago. In the last 50 years…"
"Dave, you didn't touch the electrodes did you? If so you were lucky. I thought that would kill you, hence I was real careful not to touch it. I used that same furnace in A school. It was on the right side of the foundry. Did they still have the Ajax…"
