July - August Newsletter Posted and More

The July - August issue of the Dolphin Brotherhood has been posted to the Seattle Base website.

This issue has photos from the Bremerton Armed Forces Day parade and Memorial Day, reminders for the July 4th parade and Smokey Point event, information about voting in the USSVI National election, along with the usual base news, upcoming events, and other submarine related articles.

Hardcopies of the newsletter should be going out today. I hope you all enjoy it.

As always, don't forget to check back here for base updates and other articles of interest. You can find old issues of the newsletter at: Dolphin Brotherhood Archives, which is also a link on the right side of the blog.

We also received word that WWII SubVet John Baker's wife Barbara passed away on June 21. She had endured a long and difficult fight over too many years and is now finally at rest. Services will be held at the John Knox Presbyterian Church, Normandy Park, WA on Friday July 6th at 11:00 AM. to be followed by a light luncheon, there will not be a graveside service.

If you need the address of the church or contact information for John, please contact me and I will give you that information.

Finally, base member John Bush passed along the link to this tribute to the military by Gene Simmons and asked me to share it with all of you.
