 Capt. Joe as most of us remember him. An extremely down to earth person. I think this was taken at a beer ball game just after we got back to Pearl. Joe was in cap and tie, and Dave Bunting, the XO, on Joe's right was in a tie also. The crewman just over Joe's right shoulder is "Cactus" Yotter TM1 who died many years ago. Doc |

 This is the Presidental Unit Citation awarded the boat when we returned to Pearl. There was no wind so the COB detailed a S2c to stand in the shears and hold it out. Doc |
