My twin brother came aboard from the USS Oriskany deployed in the Gulf of Tonkin.
He was an ADJ3 in the DASH section.
We have a few old pictures of the BC and the Oriskany moored side by side at Subic Bay P.I.
The B.C. did preliminary repairs on the O boat after the 1966 fire. The fire killed 44 officers and enlisted.
After the repairs were made the Oriskany
returned to San Diego for more repairs.

Had a great time and now wish I had stayed aboard instead of being transfered to shore duty (USN and MCRTC Pasadena) - worst duty ever. I have renewed some past memories with several BC shipmates in the past couple years. I remember the ORISKANY incident and pulling alongside her to assist in repairs. We were suppose to be on our way to Hong Kong.

Taiwan, Subic Bay Philapines. A low point, with a good ending, was when Master Chief "Cash" Register, informed me in his Mr Hyde mode (As in Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde), to report to the bridge for captain's mast,only to find out that it was an honorly mast for a number of the electronics gang and a handshake from Capt. Giovanni.

Comments: I have a nice picture of the USS Bryce Canyon AD36 for sale on EBay. I can't tell for sure where the pic was made, but it appears to be in a tropical locale. Those serving aboard the vessel are also in the pic lining the boat from stem to stern. If you are interested, email me for additional details or go to ebay.com and search for the item -- just type in USS Bryce Canyon or search for me -- under search choose search for seller and then type in kylecat@bellsouth.net. I would like to see this photo end up in the hands of someone who will treasure it the way it was meant to be.
