filipino crew at dicky b.

Comments: Stay in dicky b for almost 2yrs, and we were like just a family on board ship. The vietnam action is big memory for me,especially those un-reps,working party,all hands carrying ammo by hands side by side and the stay to tonkin gulf for almost 60 days on patrol also shore bombardment its amazing we just load ammo and all of sudden is gone we have to get some more ammo,fuel,food and etc. Its a wonderful experienced for a kid like me during those time and the responsibility that I've learned on board ship which I have taken in my civilian life to be dependable and reliable thanks God I survive and go on with my life..
