BACKGROUND

RE: My earlier notice about a request for Submarine veteran grave markers

( Read the background first. It's how the subject first came upon the internet. )

I have just been informed today by Gil Raynor (Lockwood Base) of the availability of an "updated" Submarine veteran grave marker.

As the Nat'l. Webmaster I ONLY do the website.

I am not the Storekeeper nor am I the Chaplain for USSVI.

And the only decisions I make are whether to use Arial fonts or Times-New Roman.

However I would suggest that someone consider how best to make the GRAVE MARKER (displayed above) available to all bases through normal channels. (Whatever that is)

I'll leave that up to whomever wants to take this on.

Contact Gil Raynor For particulars on pricing, ordering whatever.....     gilraynorasoc@sbcglobal.net

You now have the "word".
