Hi All.......
Have been away for more than 2 years. I became quite ill, then the wife became quite ill as well, moved to a new address, etc, etc, etc. No need for the gory details.....many of you can relate to these sort of things....but I'm back, and EXCEPTIONALLY glad to be here

. Some of you may remember the JSC Indianapolis thread that I started. It's still unfinished on the shelf, but I really wanted to start anew.....and after reading the book "Japanese Destroyer Captain", by Tameichi Hara, have decided on the Gremir IJN Nagatsuki, as this was his very first full command during the years 1934-1937.
I will now be known as tincan871, as I also, was a tin can sailor. When I familiarize myself with this new format, I'll post a few photos although I think it's been done before by others.
Regards to all and looking forward to joining you again!!......
