R.I.P George P. You were a great guy.
I served with George aboard the USS Pluck MSO-464 while in the Navy together. George being from Cash & me from Jonesboro (Valley View) we spend time talking about things that we had done before going into the Navy. George got out of the Navy before I did and he stopped by and said hello to my Mom & Dad.
They were very pleased that he came by.
Fair Seas my friend, I relive you of your watch.
