... with links to all my old pages. If you have bookmarks to my other pages you need to update those to their new location. I will have transfer pages in place soon and eliminate their rddesigns.com locations.

I have some of my older pages undergoing upkeep so they may be a bit messy. A few will get a dry docking and full overhaul!

I am giving up my old domain and moving all my web pages to a new domain called PigBoats.COM!

It has been a 3 month slog in creating all new pages. Co-ordinating with two other sub vets in getting material and, for those who I have contacted already, making changes based on feed back. It has been a long "birth" process , as those of you who have created pages know. Trying to get retro-fit old pages with new addresses has been challenging to say the least. There is still a lot to add to some pages and I have fallen behind in getting that done and try and work for a living and trying to still have a life.

I have been working with Rick Larson a 20+ year retired Master Chief who has been collecting ships patches since 1967 and David Johnston DC1 (SS/SW) who is on active duty since the 911 incident. Both I have been working with for a number of years in conjunction with my Through The Looking Glass pages.

I have given them both their own "corners" to play in with what ever they want. They are totally responsible for their content and have their own PigBoats.COM email. If you have issues contact them as I will not forward any Complaints or Kudos.

There will be holes in some of my buttons but tuff nuggies, I will get to them as soon as I can. I am getting an RSS Feed set up for updates which there will be number of as I begin to add all the stuff I haven't had time to get to yet. For this first week contact me at at webmaster AT pigboats.com with broken links and feed back.

I have provided both a guest log for you to sign and a BSS for you to play on. I hope you take advantage of both.

Click on the following link to drop in.

Thank you.

Well not sure what is going on but from what I see is that many folks are getting on no problem.

Try this as an alternate www.pigboats.com but the other one does work too and internal links will take you back to the original one given.

Ric, go back to your first post and mouse-over the link you gave.

You'll see the problem.

of course I had to check out the "ships sunk" by the USS Sterlet. As in many records, yours gives credit for 4 ships sunk for a tonnage of 15,803 tons total. They sunk that much on their first patrol. Verified by War Patrol Reports and also by Lt. W.R. Wright, in his book, "The Last Good War."

Cora, that is true. Many of the first pages I did don't reflect anything other than the JANAC "official" scores. This is one of the many projects I need to get back to.

thanks Love...

Ric
