Arthur's Story
Signed up for the Navy in April of '63, not knowing if I would graduate (I had made up my mind to go in any case). By some miracle they lowered the passing grade of the Earth Science Regents exam and off I went to Boot Camp near the Great Lakes.
After Boot Camp I went to Class A Radar School and graduated first (a shock to me also). Assigned to USS Forrest Sherman DD931 and spent several years cruising the Mediteranean Sea and ...Expand for more
chasing Russian subs.
Married Ginny Canderan in '70 and had one son, Dave. Dave in a NYPD officer with one son Jake and another child on the way.
Went to college on the GI Bill, graduated in '73 with a degree in Architecture. Served in this profession for 29 years and retired 2002.
My time is now devoted to Jake, my Grandson (he is a mini me) and wondering how it all flew by so fast.
Hope all is well with you all.
