Terminal Island - San Pedro, California
 Before Dad passed away, he put together
a little book about the Terminal Islanders:
Although Patriotic, We Were Drydocked
He also helped to establish the Terminal Island Memorial.
He told many, many stories...
Unfortunately, we didn't write them down. Bobby remembered more than anyone else. Dad also took both sides of the family on fishing trips. Bobby and Uncle Tak fished the most with him. Here are some photos of Morro Bay Fishing Trips
