I Transfered From the USS Grant (SSBN631) to new construction in Miss. for the USS Aspro (SSN 648) I am a plank owner of the Aspro, and I served on board and requalified from 1968 to 1971. I then got shore duty as an instructor. In 1971 I also made MM1(SS)that year. By 1974 I wanted to go back to the "Boomers" but I kept getting orders to fast attacks. Being gone from family 9-10 months of the year is not a happy life. So with almost 10 years with sub service, I got out of the Navy, and Now I work for the Federal Aviation administration, and ready to retire. To all my brothers out there, I wish you well,and a very happy life. Holly

Plank owner. Made 1-5 Blue patrols. Made Jacksonville and Seattle reunions - had a blast! If Frank Brown ET2 (SS) don't contact me I'm calling the IRS on his *ss! Hope to see a lot of shipmates in Texas in 2011. If you don't do anything else - contact me if you hit the lottery or write if you get work (he he).

Relieved MTC(SS) Lomberk. Great crew and boat. Too many "good" events to recount. BE SURE TO ATTEND AT LEAST ONE PART (LAND OR SEA) OF THE 2011 GRANT REUNION. Also -- check this website frequently for reunion updates. Does anyone know how to contact "Bob" Bailey TM1SS)/TMC(SS), Steve Hill MT1(SS) or Ralph Brown MT1(SS)?

Picked up the boat in Bremerton in Sept 70. Made 5 patrols out of Holyloch. Best years of my life. Retired from reserves Feb. '08. Would like to hear from any of the old gang.
