Comments: I have a picture of my father in the Headquarters Room at Camp McGill on December 26, 1946. The pictre has a list of names on the back. I think they called him NATCH. He was also an MP and I think he may have coached basketball. He was thin with blondish hair...funny....also went by Charlie (JASTER)

Please respond if u have any info.....

Comments: As a new Ensign, was Asst. Ops officer. Trans to WPD in '61 as Headquarters Co. Commander. Sent to SW Pacific in '62 with Causeway Detachment as Vietnam was heating up, but we steamed in circles for a few weeks then back home without ever dropping our causeway sections. Was SP officer in Hong Kong for a week or so on that deployment. I have warm and wonderful memories of my 3 years with ACB-1. They always made me feel like one of them, even though I was the only line officer among all the CEC types!
