Hey, Richard (Whitey) Whitfield, I have been trying to reach you by email but no response. Steve Vrana, Steve Zeiba and I went to the reunion in Pensacola this past year. Tried to reach you. We are trying to put together a cuise. Would like to get some of the old group together. Let me know if you are interested.

I was in 24 from 77-79, my friends stayed until around 81. I would like to talk with anyone who knew me at that time, and I am really trying to find Joe Collier, Jake Vargas, Mike Frego, my roommate RON, Chief Peck, my guys/girls in the T39 shack etc etc. Jeff Braun and I keep in touch and now we have found Mark Mason. John Brooks, you still alive? So many more I can not remember names now, I will repost once I think about it. Jeff and I will throw back a few and laugh while we try to remember. Sig, what a time............

I have uploaded some photos that you might enjoy viewing. They are from VR-24 Naples Det. 63-66 and some recent reunions. The photos have been shared by Rosemary and Ed Reilly (RRC), Sam Todd (STC), and Ken Balderston (KBC). They are for the express intention of sharing with you some memories from a very special time in our life. We hope you will enjoy and we also hope that they will generate some interest in attending the annual VR-24 Ass. reunion. They can be viewed at: photoshow.com/watch/mP4cE2eF.

Jeff Hughes retired from the Navy a couple of years back and now lives with his wife and two kids in OKC, OK.

Anyone know where Jeff Huges ended up?

OH and I left out a little thing.. Fick recently married Cancelli.. which those of you who were there I am guessing like 84-85 know what I mean... Smitty.. etc. you know who ya are :)

I stumbled accross this site, I was pretty happy.  I wasnt with you all, although I spent 6 weeks with one of your own, it was one if the best expieriences of my life.  For those of you that remember the 80's... I came from the states to see (Scott Fick) I believe he was about E-3 maybe 4 at the time.  There was a bet to freckles on my "lapel.. area"  I remember Repo,and another couple with a green bug, :)  and later Luigi Haddle, fondly..  To give you an update.. for any of you that knew him, he is doing well, made E-9 last whatever it was.. (damn I should have held off on that divorce j/k) We left Sig and went to Jacksonville, then to Norfolk.. I have thought of my days with alot of you and it just stuck, I am a 3rd generation Navy brat, and I lived and breathed it all in... thank you for one of the best expierences of my life! I hope I havent intruded on anything here, but like I said, I really felt connected.. thank you all for allowing me to post.. Andrea
