Only time I got to read light was from 2300 to 0500 talking to merchant ships (you remember 18 on 6 off three shift duty rotation). Got to know all the Chiefs though and brown nosed my way to SN in 2 months and the quality of the food even went up in the mess too, Thanks Guys! The Shellback Chiefs got even with my cooking when we went across the equator and they had that fart sack filled with my week old garbage not to mention the cut off fire hoses. Anyone out there remember me? Give me a E-Mail and we'll talk about New Zealand etc.	1968

4/29/00	MM3 Randy Jones Gooding, Idaho Comments:The DeHaven was the first ship I served on so I have plenty of memories, some good and some bad. I had never experienced hard work, long hours and almost unbearable heat like that. I don't let anyone tell me how soft sailors had it. I now work for a very forgiving God who had plenty to forgive me for after serving on the DeHaven. Greetings and God bless to all.	67-68

I did not know him because I was so young. It would be beyond my wildest dreams if someone who knew my dad could contact me. There are precious few years left for that.
