I served from '68 to '71
aboard Cutlass as an engineman at first then moved to the control room
and stood watch at the air manifold. The memories will last forever. I
talked to Mike Redmond last year and hope to again soon, and would love
to hear from Brian Ramsey and anyone else that served aboard in that
time frame. Thanks
Hi Everyone, I served as
an ETR3 aboard the Cutlass from Late 1970 through 1972 ... I later
joined the Iowa Army National Guard in 1988 and finally retired as a SSG
in 2004 ..
