Heard you up on 20 meters morning, wasn't able to get through to you so far. Visited BB-62 when I was Fleet Liason at Pearl Harbor. Sounds like you guys are having a lot of fun.

My son-in-law, Marine Lt Stan Bennett, was aboard the NJ in the 1980s during it's first cruise after mothballs. I had a tour of the ship while it was still at Long Beach. Quite a ship.

My late father served on the New Jersey during WWII as a 20mm gunners mate. I remember him telling me the story of the time the Jersey let loose a battery of her massive 16" guns and rolled a Jap trawler right over on her keel. Dad also told me about the Jersey's first real action of WWII shooting down a Jap Zeke that was attacking the Iowa. I've got dad's "Jersey War Log" and numerous issues of "The New Jerseyman". Could you use any of this material...I have both on the computer. Let me know. Every WWII documentary I look for "BB62" because I can say "My dad's aboard that battleship right at that moment...he was 16 when he enlisted". I'd appreciate hearing from you. Thank you so much for what you sacrificed. I have wished all my life that I could have served on her. I feel like I've known her for the past 50 years. Dad and I watched the show "Victory at Sea" and we would look for her all the time. Dad loved her too! Thank you.
