Dear Art, Tom, Jeff, and Steven:
I'd like to briefly tell you what's
happening now. Later, We will tell you "what
happened to us" after we departed USS Brewton.
Most of us have been settling in
California. All children have grown up and
completed college. Today, We are in all walks of
life. We are Teacher, Doctor, Engineer, DOD
employee, Military Service Member, Police
Officer, Business Owner, Hotel Chef, Electrician,
Real-Estate Agent, Grandpa, Grandma,
Retirees...and many more. I wish you could name
them all.
I also joined the Navy. I completed 10 years
active service then joined the Naval Reserve
after honorably discharged. I served onboard USS
Midway, COM7FLEET (USS Blue Ridge)and USS
Enterprise. Now, I am a First Class, still in
the reserve, living in Northern Virginia,
Southwest of Pentagon.
Here is my E-mail: rushhours23@yahoo.com.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
May 2007 will be the Quarter of Century since
the day we were rescued on 26 May 82.
Dear Huong,
I was surprised that you found USS Brewton
website. How did you find out and can you tell me
whose your parents are. Thanks!!
Manh
