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
