            Bumping this back to the original question.

            I will be bringing a work in progress 1/48 scale USS seadragon SSN 584 as configured in the 70's for it's second sea trial.

            Also a work in progress 1/96 O.H. Perry class FFG, USS Ingraham FFG 61 for it's first sea trial, so there will be an ASW presence.

            Perhaps a 1/1 scale squirtgun for Ed's cigars.

              Holy crap I'm not sure how I missed it. My CMC saw you guys but he didn't have my home number handy to call me. Bummer.

              Cheers,

                        Dave,
                        Johan was there, I believe the the type 26 was his.
                        He didn't tow any john boats around with it thought, there wasn't one available.
                        Bob.

                          You can see him, along with Joe Oliver, Irving Loyd and the venerable Ray Mason in the pictures w/them standing at the beach.

                          As usual a GREAT time that passes too quickly.

                            Possibly because you're showing as a forum member rather than Sub Committee member.

                              I can assure you that I am a fully paid SC member. Maybe Jeff, Jim B. and, or whomever, could check into that and correct it if necessary.

                              I do, however have an old as dinosaur poop computer, with an OS that is capable of less and less every day!! MS Vista Home Premium sucked from the word "go", but, not as bad as Windows 8!!! Someday, I may "upgrade", if installing any new MS product could be considered such. Maybe not.
