Oft go astray...
Our arrangements to be at the USSVI convention starting tomorrow night have been overcome by events, and Margaret and I will NOT be attending.
A close friend of mine from way back (USS GROTON, USS DACE), has come to the end of watch, is now home under the care of his loving wife and hospice, and I am compelled to make the trip for what may be our final visit.
To those of you headed to USSVI in Cleveland, enjoy your time with your shipmates together - life is all too short, so make the most of it.
Think kindly of me, if you will, and look forward to REGROUPEX 25 next year!
