Great website...especially enjoyed the pictures!
My dad, LCDR Howard L. Fry, was the Supply Officer at Fort Allen from 1966 to 1968.
My older sister, Michelle, was one of the 2 graduating seniors in 1967--Dad warned
her before she and Bill Davis walked down the aisle at graduation, in the chapel,
"just don't say 'I do'!!" He did have a sense of humor! :-)
Does the name Bill VanNortwick ring a bell with anyone? (I had a terrific crush on him;
he was a corpsman.)

I just looked over the photos on the site - wow! Funny to think of life at Ft. Allen before
we were there. (Ft. Allen had a football team?!) Not many guests are late-timers like
we were, so I hardly recognize any names or faces.
I wanted to add that my step-dad was a CWO-4 and worked at the Com station.
My mom worked at the telephone annex as an operator, civil service employee.
I was a horse nut - rode in all the shows - bowled, played on the women's softball team,
and was very active in school. I also got certified to scuba while I was there. What a life!

Thanks Google! and Thank you Al. The memories are flooding back. I was at Ft. Allen from
12/64 till 6/66. I was lucky enough to work at the Salinas Receiver site for LTJG Boughton,
Chief Wietzke. I remember John Craig(in the ET shack), big Jim Curry kept the generators
ready for the next outage. After seeing the photos, I remembered Beale and Schneider and
Elsie (Sam's replacement). We raised Sam from a calf and didn't have the heart to butcher
him, so we sold him and bought Steaks with the money. Someone mentioned Jerry Jernigan.
He was from a town near my home in South Carolina. My first crew leader was Houseknetch
or something like that. It was pronounced House'nick.
I was pretty good friends with Charles Townsend and Russ Holbrook.
This has been a lot of fun. I'll be back!

Hello ya'all. I remember my days at Ft Allen all to well. Those were the good old days. I left Ft Allen
in November of 1976 after RMCS White in the Bupers told me that I had to leave! Then the bum told
me at the Pentagon in 1980 that I had to get some sea legs and spend some time on the USS Carl Vinson.
Well, I just retired to avoid that. Went to work for AT&T from June 1980 to OCt 1998 and then retired
from them. I currently work as a TEch Rep for a company that supports AT&T on contracts. Plan on
retiring someday. Regretfully can not make the OCt 2002 reunion but hope to make the next one.

My father was a RM,George Stevens. He was stationed at Fort Allen from 10-1972 until sometime
and 1974 (a late comer and short timer).
I remember having my 4th grade class in the BOQ with a pool table in the middle of the class room
because the elementary school was falling in or down. I remember strings and strings of frog eggs
in a fountain on base, great picnics and super parades.
I think it is so neat that you guys do this and get together.

(sometimes known as Frenchie by the guys in the galley. I have pictures of some of the Ice Scuptures,Base
picnic,Thanksgiving dinner in the galley and a few others that I will be glad to share with you.
By the way I also married a salior stationed there during that time. I think he may be the man seated
at the console. His name is Thurston Walker Jr. (TED). I will ask him if that's him and let you know so
maybe you can put a name with that face once and for all. I have enjoyed you web site and look forward
to looking back in on it. Linda
