WELCOME TO THE 2002
NAVY REUNION IN MOBILE ALABAMA
AND THE GULF COAST.
This was a special place for most of
us sailors as we had advanced training in this area before we went overseas. We
started out with a trip to the John C Stennis Space Center in MS. Where they
test the main engines for the space program. Then on to the Battleship Park
where they have the USS Alabama on display. There we had our
memorial service for all lives we lost in all the wars. Then on
to Pensacola Fl. to see the Navy Air Base where many of us
had our advanced training and view the Navy Air Museum The next day we headed to
New Orleans LA. To the new D Day Museum and the French quarters, which was cut
short due to the coming of hurricane Isidore, the next day we had our
general meeting, then a lot of us left as Isidore was closing in on
us. Many of the brave sailors rode out the storm and stayed for the banquet. But
all in all everyone had a great time and will look forward to next years
affair in Norfolk, VA home port for many. Now drop your anchor and
enjoy the trip. Dick
