Veteran's Group.

    At the Veteran's Social this morning was a widow of a WWII veteran. She was the oldest of the twelve present. There's one veteran of the Korean era but he was stationed in Germany during the conflict. His claim to fame is he was a scientist working on the Apollo Spacecraft. His stories are fascinating. Nick is two years older than I, and Theresa and I are the same age. The others are all younger. There's an Airforce pilot and two Navy pilots. The majority were in the army.

These twin rotor helicopters, parked on the deck of the aircraft carrier, were used by the Marines for reconnaissance. The rotors rotated in opposite dictions so there was no need for a tail rotor. It carried two persons. I've not been able to find any information about them.   1962
