The Supply Officers I had the pleasure of working for were top notch and supported their troops. My years in S-6/S-7 Division under Lt Dennis Wilson were memorable and we still stay in touch today. We went thru a lot of tough (SMI) Supply Management Inspections together. Would love to hear from some of my old and young shipmates. I am currently retired and loving life with my wife Paula.
