Default A pic of my home in '86

My home from '85-'87


What she looked like in 06. http://www.usswaddell.com/nearchos/s...chossinkex.htm

The Greeks made a couple of short vids of her firing of the different weapons. But nothing close to being on board while doing the same.

Wow that is an incredible turning radius for a big ship like that. How fast does that thing go?

A little over 30 knots, and yes on the sinking. Knew that she was sold in 92, just found out that she was sunk in 06. That was a bummer, ie my post.

Being twin screw made her maneuver pretty well for being 400ft long. Why they were made to escort carriers, and still be multipurpose.

I was wondering that. So the one the Greeks sankis the same ship you were on.

Now you may have an excuse to do some SCUBA diving to see if youcan find that old watch you left on board. It may not work now, but its probably still there.
