SUISUN (AVP-53) Service or Relationship: NAVY VETERAN Comments: Would like to hear from some of my friends on the Suisun. I use to run the RAB's, P. Boat, Motor launch, and the Gig. I remember one time when John Valenti was running the P Boat and hit this bouy at night, which the bouy didn't have a light on and he made it back to the ship and was hoisted aboard before sinking. Also, Sig used to run the motor launch and he would be wearing his water boots to bed and would sit at the barber shop chair and listen to clasical music and had a girl friend age 14 years old Keywords: N/A
