Welcome to the Atakapa Blog
This blog is a new effort which will hopefully help us to keep up to date with one another and make Ron's excellent work a little bit easier on him. Everyone is welcome to send info for this blog. If you are not familiar with blogs, they are a kind of specialized web page that are ideally suited as a meeting place and information exchange. No special skills are needed beyond what you already know about using your computer.
You can send in sea stories, questions, pictures, reminders, names and addresses...in short send in most anything that pertains to our ship and our shipmates and their families. I would remind you that this is a public forum so items posted should be appropriate for a forum like this.
On here you will also see links to other web sites that I think you may find interesting and I'll be happy to add appropriate links that you suggest. Also you'll find photo albums of pictures you might like to see. I'll try not to duplicate photos posted by others. So, that said, lets jump in and get busy.
If you want to send me an article of whatever length or photos for the blog, send it to jim.brodhead@verizon.net. It was great seeing all of you in Nashville for the reunion and for those that weren't there, please know that you were missed.
Love the blog. Can someone post the names to go along with the reunion pics. That would be great. Thanks, from Rod (Frenchy 65, 66)

I also agree that your BLOG is great and would also like to know the names of the ones in the picture. I served on board from 1959-1962.
