Comments: I'm looking for shipmates that served on board when the Watts was a reserve training ship out of pier 91 in Seattle, and later out of the USN and MC base at Tacoma. I remember Lou Pohlenz and Rick Carlson (my best friends), D.Bennett, Moreland, Starnes, Emmahauser(sp), Starnes, Tedpahogo,and a few others. What a time we had during the 1962 world's fair!
