Comments: Served aboard the Mighty Mcgowan as the mailman during 1954/1955. Went on a Northern European cruise while on board. A cruise book was published for that cruise, but I somehow lost mine. If anyone has any idea how I can locate one, please contact me. I would be very appreciative.
My email address is: iam9th@sbcglobal.net and my cell phone number is (405) 249-0429.
Would appreciate hearing from any former crew members.
Thank you very much!
