Didn't read your last (promise) until after I sent that. You know who I
meant. BTW, did you just by any chance ever work for me at the PME Lab in
Hawaii ?


Hi Howard,

Hmmm, how to answer that. Did that fellow remind you of me?

Well, to cut to the chase, I was SUBLANT, USS Holland AS-32, Nuclear
Navy; and as far as I know, the closest point of approach would have
been Guam (aside from our time in the yards at Bremerton, across the
water from where I live now).

OK Robert. (Howard was my uncle. He has the orange top). No, I just knew
that you were into metrology from your postings, and I had the PMEL at
Hickam 1960-63.

Now that you've explained that, I'll inquire someday (but not today) as to
what the SUBLANT folks were doing in the Pacific.

Regards

the Holland served many areas, quite a history for a sub tender.

I don't remember being tied up to her, but we were both in Charleston at the
same time, though we were sailing out of Kings Bay at the time she was
getting overhauled in Charleston.
