Extensive NGFS offshore Viet Nam. Wouldn't trade a minute of it for anything. God Bless Lisa Yuen from Hong Kong, I miss her even today. Would like to see a copy of the second cruise book . ('68?). I have the first book and payed in advance for the second but never recieved it. Thanks to all who served. Larry Beach

Comments: I was a signalman on the Hollister from 1971 to 1973 and would like to hear from anyone that might have served on that WesPac cruise from JUN '72 to Jan '73 when I left to come home and get out. I remember the Boyce brothers, Gigliraol but not many other names.

Comments: My grandfather William "Harry" White was a Gas Turbine Engineer during the Korean War on the Hollister. He died in 1989. Does anyone remember him or have any stories or recollections about him (Good or bad!)? I would like to hear from you if you do.

Thanks,
