ITEM-03 .... NATIONAL SK TO DO MAL/SK ORDER TAKING
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Submitted by:
Gil Miller Huey Hahn Subhuey@aol.com
===================================================================
I have talked to Bill Monroe who had been doing the MAL/SK job of
taking orders and shipping for USSVI.

I will take on that job along with my NSK chores.

I am also the SK for Redfish Base and will handle the sales through
Redfish Base. This I believe will be a easier way to take care of
these transactions for MAL sales hopefully without a conflict of
interest. I have all the items here so it should work out pretty good
for all concerned.

ITEM-12 .... QUESTION: SAIL AT PORT CANAVERAL
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Submitted by:
Sid Harrison webmaster@ussvi.org
===================================================================
I received a report stating that near Port Canaveral there is a sail
near the SSBN turning basin.

The sender saw the sail but did not know what submarine it came from
or what the story was.

You can view the image that he sent to me here
http://www.ussvi.org/revuthis/canav.jpg

Does anyone have any hard info on this sail? What boat? Location of
site (exact as possible - including driving directions and all that
stuff)? Who put it there and when?

When I get the full skinny on this I will place it here
http://www.ussvi.org/mem/submem1b.htm
