My grandfather was at sea for many years several generratoins ago and his career bridged the transition from steam to the modern fleet, air and nuclear, and we found he had kept an entire file cabinet of carefully written notes, stories and times he had seen, and we put some of them together in a memory book, modern software makes that very very easy to do. And he may indeed have written things that could be added too. just a thought.
God bless you all and all the familiy.  |
We tried to get Dad to write stuff down for years but I think we could all come up with some stories on our own, that is a great idea and I will talk to my sisters about it
