Greg's Story
Life
After graduation, I loafed for a year and joined the navy. Did four years there and returned home in 1979. Worked for Christian hospital for 4 years and then got a job at the Purex corporation which was bought by the Dial corporation and have been there ever since. I have two children, one 17 and the other 12. I was able to make the 10th and the 20th reunions and hopefully I can make quite a few more.

lems all over their flags, we had maybe one, two at the most. The Chief was still very likable even though he put up with us. After bootcamp, I went to the USS England (CG22). I spent the rest of my military career on her. My first captain was John Poindexter, President Reagan's National Security Advisor, my second captain was the late Clell Ammerman. Captain Webster, later to be Admiral Webster was my last captain on the good ol England. Went through one year overhaul in Bremerton, and two Westpacs. I sure wish I could relive them sometimes. Good guys, good times.
