Was an RM1 ON BOARD FROM 11-05-68 TO 10-31-69. Anyone remember the ride from Nam to Sasebo Japan? Didn't the hull crack below the expansion joints? Nice ride. I believe we lost the Radar, loran and it was overcast for three days. Can anyone confirm my memory? Hey, I would love to hear from any of the old gang. Great bunch of guys each and everyone. I don't think I have been with a more dedicated and harder working bunch of guys. We were young then, but now much older and much wiser. God bless you all. Hope to hear from some of you.

I served aboard the Askari from 11/49 to 5/52 as a EM2 and was the movie operator. We could make a mean jug of applejack when we could keep it from blowing up.
