Here's to 'all hands' . . I'd like to Thank the RVAHNAVY crew, especially Bob Maroni for treading water and doing what is necessary to keep this website alive.
I checked into Hvy 3 right out of 'AE' school. Ltjg Pete Denlea gave me a simple order,…

"Susan,
The picture you see with the BU number you are looking for was taken by me. That pic may have been taken on the USS America, USS Forrestal, or the USS Ranger.. on what we refer to as CarQuals: That's where pilots / bn's get actual aircraft…"

Good luck in your search.
Keep looking.
A few years ago I was able to find the Pilot of the B17 my father was co-pilot on during WW2...amazing!

"Gene..
I believe we were in Heavy 3 at same time ( '66 -68' ).
I think one of the guys you ran with was a guy called 'Smitty' (??) From TN/GA??
I just joined this group and saw your name..... Hope all is well with you and family.

Thank you for your reply.
Can you please tell me how you came upon these pictures?
P.s..... His plane was BuNo 151728.
Good morning sir!
One of these pictures you have on here is the one that my brother piloted... LtCmdr Carl Morris (Sonny) Sledge. This plane went down off the coast of Miami on 12/7/67. I was wondering if you were on this carrier with him, if you may have known him?
Any of our family that may know anything has unfortunately passed, I have been doing research on my own to find any information about my brother and his death, that I can find.
Any information would be greatly appreciated!
Respectfully,
Susan Sledge Lasyone
Guess I haven't looked at this for a while since your comment was in 2010! I do remember you. Didn't you beat your car up and invite others to help smash it on the beach in Daytona? I don't recall Smitty. I hung quite a bit with Harry Allen, Joe Goedde, Mark Fisher, John Gllihan. Most weekends would find us in Daytona. There was a group of 4 girls, X-ray techs, that shared an apartment and let us crash there. We kind of shared them also, on a first come-first served basis. Crazy times! I ended up back in Florida and have been in Clearwater since 1981. Hope this finds you happy and well...Gene
