Well at least you got one right! ::) I'll help you out a little...Owen Williams is the WW II vet in the white vest or black jacket.
The picutre of us on the gangway...(left to right) David Heckman, Pat Habel, Tim Abendroth, Me, and Phil Walters. Dave and Tim work for our Overnight Program and Pat and Phil are longtime volunteers. The other two guys in our group were Jim Hansen (green jacket) and Russ Collins.

Karen, thanks. Sorry it took me so long to answer. I really appreciate having names to put to people's faces. Most of us never get to meet each other and so it is nice to know what the person who posts looks like. Course at times that might not be the best either, but there are lots of big Stetsons out there to cover up part of the ugly. I really think that is the main thing behind this women on subs debate. The old farts are all afraid suddenly the crew is going to be better looking that it used to. LOL I have a guy coming to visit Freedom Park who I think said he has visited all but four of the museum boats. I'll try and get his picture and put up here to see if any remember him.
