Adm. Hyman Rickover passed on this date in 1986. The "Father" of Nuclear Power was born in 1900. ------------- My heroes wear dog tags, not shoulder pads |

Just who is that short guy, and why hasn't he appropriated a Foulweather jacket yet? Wonder if he had a closet full of them? ------------- Walt, Had I done everything right throughout my life, the World wouldn't have noticed. |

He got one from us on that boat... also got one from my previous boat when he rode for Alfa Trial. I have told the story before, but when the Admiral Came up I reached down and grabbed his upper arm to provide support. I felt my fingers actually close around his frail upper arm. He frequently gave those Foul Weather Jackets away I was told! |
