Comments: HT2, Shipfitter shop (If we can't fix it, it ain't broke!) USS Okinawa LPH3 80-84. Anyone who said that Snipes don't rule the ship got to enjoy some mighty cold showers until they thought otherwise!

Comments: Old Snipes nevr die, they just fade away and re-group. Been a Snipe for 19 years now and your Web Page brought back the good days reading the Snipes Lament, along with old memories of Snipes Castle and the fun times on those old FF(DD) Class ship's.

Thanks for the good ords mate!

Comments:  Was on Rehoboth in 1946 when AVP-50 going to Aust. to do preparation work for Truculent Turtle P2V record breaking non stop on fueling flight. My 1946 Rehoboth postmarked flight cover is on a Truculent Turtle P2V website,not mine. That P2V part of Rehoboth history is on tarmac of Pensacola Florida Naval Air Museum. My equator crossing Rehoboth card was in the Indian Ocean.
