I am striving to write a memoir of my 84-year-old father and mother. My father is a Navy Vet who began his journey in February 1952 in San Diego. He ended up, I believe, in company 181 and later MSB Division One. I am looking for some folks that I can discuss dad's journey with so that I can make sense out of something that is unfamiliar to me ..... so that I can write about it! :-)
P.S. He mentioned he went to boot camp and was in the Drum and Bugle Corps there but stayed longer for more boot camp training, deciding to join the fleet instead for electrical training and excitement in minesweeping!
Thank you for any replies.

say thanks to all the Navy vets...Thank You
