Kevin: Thanks for the welcome to Danny. Was worried the typhoon got you. I guess you only took a hit in the pocketbook as I did from Katrina.Only cost me about $50K from my retirement funds.

Greeting Steamers.....I picked up the WIlliam H Standley in 1977 after leaving shore duty in Mayport, Fl when she was in Puget Sound Naval Shipyard Bremerton, Wa. Spent a year then we followed her to San Diego where I made a Westpac cruise when Iran took our hostages. Was in the radio shack and made RM1 before I left her in June of '81. Nice site and glad I found it.
