Just wanted to note that the former USCG cutter Calypso (WPC-104) is starting her 67th year of faithful service, now in the merchant marine. She passed her annual passenger vessel CG inspection without a single 835 (deficiency form) requirement and resumes three hour tours in NY harbor Monday. Her original 1931 Winton diesels continue to perform perfectly. (see http://members.aol.com/wpc104 for details). As her Engineer, I would love to hear from any CG personnel who served aboard her or other 165' cutters so I can keep her history alive for interested passengers. --- Brian (mexwolf@aol.com)

What happened to the former crewmembersof the CGC Lightship HURON, The ship is in the City Park in Port Huron Michigan and in good shape. Most of the gear is still aboard. It has been turned into a museum. The visit is worth the trip I was aboard in 1962-1964. Rode out the storm of June 1963 when we dragged our mushroom about 1/4 mile off station. Any crew out there?

USCGC Cosmos - I was stationed on the construction tender in St Petersburg, Florida from Jan. 1970 - October 1970 as a DC1. I believe she was an ex-Navy ship 100'; built in the 1940's looked like a mini-buoy tender and pushed a 68' foot barge from St Pete to the North. I have kept in touch with a few of the shipmates from that time period.
