Jim:

Congratulations, and thanks on your page. I just discovered it, and posted a message, thanks to the advice of one of our shipmates.

I served on the Diodon in '54-55, under CDR Hannifin. I was a YN2(SS), and made YN1just before separation in l955. The reunion in Peoria sounds great, and hope to make it.

Serving aboard the boats was an experience that will live with me forever, and I still communicate with some of my former shipmates who served at the same period.

Thanks again for all your devotion and good work.
