Just found this website. Came across a couple of names of past shipmates. Maurice Gadbois, deceased, was my CPO; and Robert D Jackson, was one of my First Class PO when serving in W Division aboard the Kitty Hawk from 1967-1970. I ran across another ship-mate, Danny Goddard, in a diesel engine class at San Diego Community College many years ago. Seeing this website and reading about the weapons (don't forget the DST's we built during the 67/68 & 68/69 WestPac cruises ; and seeing the familiar names brings back lots of good memories.
Since leaving the Navy (GMT#) in 1970 I've been a auto/light truck/heavy truck/heavy equipment mechanic; a self employed timber faller/wildland fire fighter (hazard tree faller);community college support staff member and community college instructor for timber felling, hydraulics, and automotive topics. I recently retired and love my newest vocation(retirement). Was diagnosised with Multiple
Sclerosis in 1996 and have recently acquired my first grandson. Doing lots of fishing and hunting; and just enjoying life. Would be great to hear from any of my old shipmates. Hope everyone is doing well.

This Veterans Day was a special one for me. The Veterans coalition I was president of for three years asked that I preside over a ceremony that restored a deceased Vietnam veteran's name to our county War Memorial. The 90+ year old parents attended and all went well. I hope all my shipmates keep involved in veterans issues...honorable veterans such as the Keepers of the Dragon are become rarier with each passing day and our earned benefits are under attack..God bless you all.
As I reflect on this Veterans Day I now realize in my olden years how blessed I was to have been able to serve with such an honorable Group. We had our ups and downs but we all served honorably for the good of our great Nation. Thanks again for being my Shipmates, God Bless. Dave Nations
Hard to believe I can look at pictures of our weapons much less the whole world! We used to look for any camera's while loading/moving weapons and take any film we found/saw. Times change. My family got a kick out of seeing real nucs, sometimes hard to believe we did what we did. Great site-will inform my "E" mates from the Hancock. Any other Hancock sailors out there? "E" me rosey
Was at Lake Mead Base in 68-69 and then at NavMag Guam from 69-71. Looking for any old friends.
I see posting #40 by Javier Aguirre. I was in your "A" school class at NWTGP from 3/77-6/77. I also remember a lot of the names you mention. It has been so many years but I don't regret one day I spent doing what we did.. WT1(AW) Glover retired.
I see that posting #82 was by Scott Helton. I was stationed on the USS John F. Kennedy with a GMT2 Scott Helton from 7/77 thru 6/80. Just curious if it is you. WT1(AW) Glover retired.
