Comment: Served from Sept. 64 to JUNE 65 reuped and whent to Sonar school. I hope to find some old ship mates to help prove part of the reason I am deaf, and maybe the reason I have Diabetes is due to Mt 31 experence, or we may have been exposed to agent orange while doing boad and search missions and going ashore in motor whale boats to transfer advisors and preform other duties. Plus being anchored in costal waters or swimming in same. Hope someone is having success in getting medical aid. I don't want their money just Medical help I feel is due. I was proud to serve and did full tour in 69 Aboard USS Mullinnix with more of the same from VA saying as a Sonarman my MOS was not part of hearning problem. My GQ Station for all surface action was on a 3"50 twin mout because of my experience aboard the Vance. So the circle continues. Feal like a dog chasing my tail and ran into a brick wall. May God's Will be in all our lives. |
