Hey Ron Saylor,
I am building a list of all locals that served in Heavy squadrons in the area, can you help me?
If I remember you right, you were an AT1 in RVAH-13 during the 75/76 cruise. I came to the squadron right after quals just before the cruise. I worked in the ASB shop with Walt Gumby, David Kirby, Jerry Meyers, Charles White and a few others.
Hey Ron, long time no SEA.

Ron,
Just checking in. Been too long. Hope you are doing well, and are refusing to get older. It's so seldom that I get around to this site it would be better to keep in touch by email. Mine is alpenajim80@yahoo.com.
Best wishes for a long and happy life. Word of advice - don't get into politics, it's too messy.

I went to the reunion last Summer and had a pretty good time of it. It was better than I thought it would be, and the site was excellent. The guys who worked on it did a very good job.
I saw Joe Brandl last Summer just after the reunion. His wife invited me to New Hampshire for his surprise 60th birthday party. I had a great time and it was a lot of fun. As I explained to him; the last time I saw him was 38 years ago, he looked bad then, and still does.
Reference the photo of the launch on cat 2. Is that plane 149307? Is so I think you painted my name on as the plane captain for that Ranger cruise. Where did you find the photo?
Have a good holiday.
Ciffone.
