We lost another Board of Trustees member in May, 2023.

Legalman Chief Mark Adams was a DDG 42 crew member, who will be missed  by all who knew him and served with him.

The Association has lost another long time member. Past President and the last Commanding Officer of DDG 42, Captain Jeff Sweet, passed on New Years Day. His wife Mary Ellen informed me, the next day. They had just celebrated their 15th wedding inniversary, the day before.

Jeff served us well, and will certainly be missed by all who knew him, and served under his command.

    The Board of Trustees has lost another long time member. Jim passed away at his home in Grandview TX  on Nov. 29, 2024.

Jim Storey was  a QM3 on DLG 11 during Piraz. He recently retired from the board at the Pensacola reunion. He served us well, and will certainly be greatly missed by all.

November, 2020.  

The Board of Trustees is deeply saddened to report the passing of one of our original Board members, Dick Hallowell, OSCS Retired. Dick was our original web designer, as well. He apparently picked up Covid while working on USS Midway, as a maintenance volunteer, an activity he loved.

Our deepest sympathies go out to Dick's family.

He was a good friend and shipmate.

The board of trustees regrets to report the loss of one our original members.  Dave Krumlauf was a Plankowner on DLG 11, as an MM1. He retired as a warrant officer.

Dave passed on Sept. 24, 2022, from multiple blood issues, and had lived with Parkinsons for 21 years. He was a long time board member, until his health forced him to step down. He was a great friend and shipmate. Our sympathies go out to his wife Marion, who was always with him at reunions.
