IMPORTANT NOTICE TO EVERYONE
EFFECTIVE NOVEMBER 1, 2006
NO UPDATED WILL BE ADDED TO THE SITE.

In March 2006 I had two operations
1. A Cornea transplant for left eyebecause of an infection.
..... I am blind in left eye, and vision in Right eye has been
effected due to damage to Optic Nerve and I will eventually go
blind in Right eye also.
2. A Lung Cancer operation.
..... Operation succerssful and no problems.
On my Feb. 25, 2008 Doctors visit, there was no recurrance
and I only have to go once-a-year for check-up now.

Because of these two operations, and only two ships
have sent information this year, I am discontinuing
updating the Website for Destroyer Squadron 45 Ships.
The Web-site will remain availlable to those interested.
Thanks to all of you who have provided information and
photos of Crewmembers and your ships.
