Navy - Nuclear - Submarine Training

These are some old scanned snap shots taken from 1969 to 1972 during my Naval training which included: Electronic Technician "A" School, Treasure Island, California; Naval Nuclear Power Training, Bainbridge, Maryland Naval Facility; Nuclear Power Prototype Training, Ballston Spa, New York and Submarine School, Groton, Connecticut. This is pure nostalgia for a very few, select old sailors!

Charlie,

I served on GWC from 72 thru 74 on the Gold crew and served under Capt. Obeirn. I was a nuc MM but don't remember to much more at this time. I left Carver to go to Nuc Pwr School at Bainbridge, then moved it to Orlando in about '75 or 76. Left active duty in 78 and finished my career in the Reserves before retiring in '96.

Your name sounds familiar so possibly we were shipmates.

Hey Charlie,
I was on the GWC from Sept 68 through Sept 71, Gold crew.
Yer pics bring back lots of memories.
Thanks
Tony (Ike) Eisenhower
