Charles "Charlie" Huson Betts, formerly AT2 USN RVAH-14

Thanks, Steve, for this post.

I read it with a little wince of pain, for one understands that a shipmate that has passed is an irreplaceable loss.

I had the privilege of serving with Charles in RVAH-14 during 1970-1972. I was the consummate sailor and technician. He was a happy-go-lucky guy and a friend to all. I cannot recall him ever directing a negative comment toward another sailor. It was a pleasure to have called him my friend, and I salute him. . . Until that Last Final Flyover, Charles, RIP.

Sorry, about the error: wishful thinking and poor proofreading on my part. Charles was the consummate sailor, not me.
