I've got whats left of an old cruise book from 56. I came aboard late 55 or early 56 from USS Intrepid CVA 11. Would like to hear from any of those aboard

I would like to contact some of my old shipmates who were stationed on
the Sea plane tender USS Currituck in the early 50's.

I remember two names. Francis Welcome, Roger Reubelt and Basil C. Tasker.
Would also like to hear from ET school friends, but don't remember any
names. I'll appreciate any help you can give me on this.

Would like to let you know that my brother William F. Conlon also served
on the currituck(designation, AV-7) with me.  

I was discharged in May of 1955.
