             Comments:   Great photo album! We are in Jacksonville, FL. Our 18
            year old son left tonight for NAS Lemoore. He is a Master at Arms.
            Seeing your pictures of Nas Lemoore means a lot to us. We also like
            to camp and fish and want to go to Pine Flat Lake and other places
            in the area. Thanks for your web site and sharing your pictures, it
            makes us feel closer to our son. We can't wait to visit him! Any
            advice for visiting there? Hope to hear from you. Chris and Effie

             Comments:   Dennis, I'm still sending you more pictures, but I
            stopoed for a minute to cruise your web-site. I'll take a few
            minutes and then back to the job at hand.
            I see 'Moose' was here. He was my hero back then. I hope he gets a
            chance to see these photos I will be sending.

            Thanks for the chance to be part of it all.

             Comments:   I was a member(grunt) of Bravo Co., 1st Bat. 3rd
            Marines, 3d Marine Div. 1958. We lived in a small tent camp, on the
            beach, just south of Subic Bay, can't remember the names. At the
            time we worked what was called tropical hours, off at 1pm. However,
            liberty was another thing, and we had to be back at camp by 1130PM.
            Never any overnighters. We were their for approx 4 months and than
            boarded ship and were sent to Taipai, never to return. Olongapo and
            it's people always bring back fond memories and was one of favorite
            duty assignments. I'll never forget the handmade bathing suits, with
            unit insigia's, the women use to make for us.

             Comments:   Just a quick note to say I enjoyed photos. I served
            aboard the USS Pollux (AKS-4) from April 1961 to March or 1964. Was
            home ported in Yokosuka and ran between there and Subic every 3
            months or so. Was surprised you had no pictures of Hong Kong. We
            also saw Formosa, White Beach, Okinawa, and got to Korea for a
            training exersice once.
            Met a Navy Brat at theEM Club in Yokohoma, married her 5 months
            later. Still happily married . That is the 62 in our E-mail address.
            Wedding day Sept. 8, 1962.
            Cheers and thank you

             Comments:   Can you tell me if the gal named Priscilla Ryes had a
            room at the Boston Hotel back in 1967? I think she might be the gal
            I was seeing there at the time. It was a long time ago and I don't
            remember her last name if I was even told. It lookes like her but I
            can't be sure from 36 years ago. She was there for me when my ship
            was in port.

            not forgotten. Your pictures brought back memories. I was with
            VA-163 on the Oriskany and Hancock. On the Oriskany I had Mess
            Cooling duties, and on the Hancock I made rate to AE-3. After VA-163
            was disbanded I got orders to VA-216 on the Forristal and went to
            the Med. I was discharged from the Navy in july 1970.
