1995 GROUP PHOTO AT CHARLESTON, NC

This is a photo of the reunion at Charleston, NC in 1995 supplied to me by Ken Hughes. I added names to the photo for your convenience. Also, following the photo is a listing of attendees along with their rates. If you click on the picture, it will enlarge so you can see it and the names better.

Enjoy and smooth sailing, Jim Julian

Two attendees were not available for the group photo, Joel Coffman had to leave early so  he could get on an Honor flight to Washington DC. I am sure he enjoyed that trip. Steve Grigg, son of Warren Grigg 43-45 could not stay long enough for the picture or banquet.   John Hankinson Jr., son of John Sr. 43-45, also attended and is shown in the group picture.

During the reunion, Jim Julian announced his "retirement" as "Reunion Chairman" after serving as chairman for 2 1/2 reunions. Bruce Shilling graciously accepted chairmanship of the next reunion (2017) and is tentatively planning on Nashville, TN. As plans progress shipmates will be informed of the plans.

This reunion had 59 total attending and 35 shipmates, which included 2 sons of shipmates.

LATEST REUNION UPDATE

Shipmates, Here is the latest list of those attending the Norfolk reunion.  I was sorry to find out that Ray Williams will be missing this reunion because of personal issues. This is the very first Hazelwood reunion he has missed. When I spoke to him he said to convey his greetings to everyone and wish you all to have a great reunion.

There are 34 shipmates attending and a total of 57 individuals.

 

Smooth sailing, Jim Julian

SAD NEWS - I heard from Otis Wolfe, 43-46, last week. His wife of 67 years passed away early in January. I expressed our condolences and we chatted for a while. Otis is now 90 years old and may not make this reunion. He and Robert Shoafstall were in the number one 5 inch mount when the Kamikaze hit and they bailed out of the mount. One on each side. Robert is not able to make this reunion but I got the two of them to talk together on the phone so they could talk about their times on the Hazelwood.

Smooth sailing, Jim Julian
