    I am the organizer of the USS New Mexico BB40 reunion, and we are always on the lookout for new members...either the men who served on "The Queen" or their families. Could you post that we are looking to find any of The Queen's Men or other persons interested in her history to contact me? My email is aspie_pride@yahoo.com. My cell # is 636-497-0583

    LOC, note misspelling of SecNav's name on negative.
  • Ryan (LOC P&P) said:
    Thanks so much for your research, B-59. We'll fill in the Secretary's name, and correct the spelling artolog, the next time we update the record.
