    I still say that this site should NOT be politicized. This site was designed and published as a vehicle for molders and their associates to spread a little bullshit , find old shipmates , and in general , enjoy each others "company" . To do otherwise is just wrong . I too am unhappy with the destruction that is being visited on my country , However , until we hold elections , there isn't much that we can do to correct the situation . So , i suggest that we tone down the rhetoric , enjoy what freedoms we have left , and tell the world to kiss our collective ML ass. Just a thought .

    Chief James Stryganek left SIMA Norfolk for the Puget Sound. He worked in the R1 Div office. He did the Desert Storm Cruise and made Senior about 95 or so.

    I knew Chief Fabek. He was a 1st class and made chief while I was stationed with him. I believe it was on the Canopus.

    And I see Wndell (molder holmes) once in a while. We did work for the same company until he retired a few months back.

    Does anyone know Chief Robert Fabek? I served with him on the USS Sierra and the Puget Sound. Last I heard he was retired and living in the Norfolk area. Hell of a good guy. Anyone with any info please give me a holler.

    I met Chief Audette when he was about to retire.
    I was a resevist on active duty, and met him on board. Don't remember which ship.
    Seemed like a great guy. He was from the Adirondaks of NY.
    Where is he living now?

    Does anyone remember a Chief named Stryganik? He was from Chicago.
    I remember him from SIMA Norfolk around 1990, or thereabouts.

Posablly seeing about starting up a navy molders museum?

I know they dismissed our rate back in 1997. I would hope there are enough of us left to possably  get together and see about creating a museum somewhere  here in the states to preserve our long history and heritage that we all have shared as Molders. Any of you out there please give me a response if you read this Discussion.                                      Thanks.
