I called him and he confirmed that it had happened. I'm flabbergasted, gobsmacked, still trying to come to terms with it. I'm honored no end. It feels unreal. I remember when Ben passed and this award was made by the USSVI. I phoned Ben on a number of occasions for information and what a character he was.  It is thanks to all of you that found what I was doing worthy of looking at. Thanks you to all of you who that made this possible. http://www.submarinesailor.com/InMemorium/BenBastura.asp I have just been reading this and how many people what paid tribute to him that are now passed themselves. Hand Salute! Two! | ||
