Hi

I shall be attending my first reunion. I would like to know the names of any 
members of the commissary department. I was a second class cook when I was 
discharged, I shipped aboard ther Bennington in  1950 in Brooklyn Navy Yard 
and was discharged in 1954, I was on the Bennington four years. I was the 
cook who was preparing breakfast when the catapault exploded and landed 
outside the galley. I remember another name Van Manon a commissary member. Tom 
Walton, a friend of mine, is mailing this for me. I do not have a computer 
and he has been keeping me up on the reunion. If you have the names of cooks who 
will attend or have attended send them, to me.
