: Hello fellow shipmates. My name is Dwayne Schwenk.I was a quartermaster on the USS Brewton FF 1086 from 4/80 to about 12/82. My fellow shipmate was William Johnson, QM1. He taught me a lot about navigation and I'd just like to see if he's still alive. I know he was quite a few years older than me. I think he was from South Carolina. I just thought I'd go see him if he's still kicking as I live in North Carolina now.
: I'm totally tripped out about the refugees of 1982 posting on the Bubba Bee site. It makes me really happy to know our efforts made a difference in their lives. It was a sad and humbling sight which has stayed with me all these years. Lastly, Do any of you aboard remember the UFO sightings somewhere in the 1980-1982 time frame while we were on Westpac or Southpac? No really, I was on the bridge that night. I just can't remember exactly what night it was. Is it possible to get the ships log through the Freedom of Information Act? I believe I made a deck entry to the events of that night. God Bless.
