August 28, 2002 - Rebuilding Sea Stories section!
- The Sea Stories section links became snarled up, so all the articles have
been backed up and are being restored in a new framework. Please be
patient as the old articles are returned to the site.
We now have another category of articles to chose from. You'll notice
that Nautical Humor has been added to the pick list.
- Added a link to the National Association of
Fleet Tug Sailors to the Navy Links page.
July 27th, 2002 - First look at
the 1966-67 Cruise Book project!
-
The first two sections of the 1966-67 Cruise Book are now available for
viewing. See the opening pages of the "first draft" of the first phase
of this project. A lot of folks have asked about this and so here is the
first cut. These cruise book pages have been scanned and stored as Adobe
Acrobat files (.pdf) and will require the use of Acrobat Reader, a free
download from:
July 21st, 2002 - Expanded Ship's Company section!
-
The 2002 Boston Reunion was held in
Baton Rouge. Your Webmaster was fortunate enough to be able to stop by
for a brief visit. See photos on this new page
in the News & Articles section.
July 17th, 2002 - Expanded Ship's Company section!
-
S-2 Division has been added to the
Ship's
Company section. How could I have forgotten these guys???? Sorry
'bout that. Thanks to Bob Elliott for getting my attention on this one.
July 7th, 2002 - New feature!
-
Deck Logs added to the News & Articles section.
Thanks to the diligent research of Ed Huntington, we now have "official"
copies of a few pages from Canberra's actual deck logs. Read the words
that capture some of our history. These logs have been scanned and
stored as Adobe Acrobat files (.pdf) and will require the use of Acrobat
Reader, a free download from:
May 12th, 2002 - New features.
- Prayer List added to the In
Memoriam section. This page was added to offer spiritual support to our
shipmates and others who have requested to be remembered in prayer.
- Added new page in the Captains' Quarters for Captain
Woods
('65-'66.)
- Due to an apparent lack of interest, the Nautical Humor (jokes) page has
been removed.
March 30th, 2002 - New features.
- Captains' Quarters added to the In
Memoriam section. This is where our commanding officers have their own
pages. Added new pages for Captain Compton
('67-'69.)
- Added pages for N Division. Our first
Quartermaster has signed on, Ron "Pat" Patterson.
- Updated many of the Ship's Company pages to include guys that have signed
in on the Quarterdeck Log.
March 2nd, 2002 - New features.
- Dennis Kempf has sent some new photos for 4th Division. John
George has provided more pix of S-1 and Subic. Ken Minick
brings a lot of really old photos that expand our collection considerably
along with captions so you'll know more about what the photos are about.
That's how this site will continue to
grow. Remember, there won't be any
"new" Canberra pictures. All we can do is hope folks will
share the ones they have.
- Added features to include both CA-70 (WWII era) and CAG-2 (Missile
conversion.) As we are all shipmates of the same ship, this is a
natural evolution for the site. Check it out: U.S.S.
Canberra pages.
- Added more background music files. Can you find them all?
- We now have a download facility where you can
pickup special programs, screen savers, desktop icons, and other neat stuff.
February 4th, 2002 - New features.
- Added a new page for Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ.)
This should help everyone to better understand the key issues about our
site.
- For those of you who have wished that you had preserved those Canberra
items that you bought from the ship's store, here is your chance to
re-acquire some of those items. Visit our new Ship's
Store page, in the Internet Links section. (These
are independent businesses. The Webmaster derives NO benefit from
these ads.)
- We're entered in a web site contest. Vote for this site through the
GI graphic/link on the Home page.
February 1st, 2002 - Miscellaneous changes to the site.
- Add new sections:
We now have a Wardroom page, in the Ship's
Company section. Also, put in a page for Flag
Staff. Officers will now appear in the Wardroom page, as well as
the division in which they served.
- New link to the U.S.S. Pueblo web site in
the Canberra Links section.
January 27th, 2002 - Made a lot of changes to the site.
- Add new sections:
The Shipmate Links page provides you
with a listing of web sites offered by our fellow shipmates. Contact
the Webmaster, if you would like
your site to be included.
Nautical Humor is our new jokes page. It is a subsection of
Sea Stories. Definitely NOT
"PC." If you are concerned about having your
delicate sensibilities challenged, don't go there.
If you do, you'll get a few belly laughs and will also have the opportunity
to add your own favorites to the collection.
- Added a link to to the Canberra Shipmates
Mailing List on the Ship's Company page. Now,
there is a way you can add, remove, or modify your mail list record.
- More new photos added all over the place. Thanx to Dave Cobb, Ken
Berreth, and Jonny Clevenger for the new pix.

December 28th, 2001 - Made a lot of changes to the site.

Company.

Stories.
- Updated Ship's Company section.
- Removed faulty table of contents. Working on a
fix/alternative. Use the Search page to
locate a specific item.
