At random: USS TRITON, the only American made twin reactor submarine ever built, on May 10, 1960, completed the first totally submerged non-trivial circumnavigation of the world when she followed the route of Ferdinand Magellan for 36,000 miles during 84 days beneath the surface.

Elmer wrote, "I was transferred this date (12/16/43) for duty CFO Sterlet."

What does CFO mean?

CFO - ACCORDING TO OPNAV29-P1000

Physically on board for the commissioning and fitting out of a ship

Which is what Elmer was as it was still in Kittery and had not been commissioned as yet.

Glad to help Gallant Lady - keep filling in the blanks for that book

Did you get an e-mail from me a week or so ago?

You talked about making a better copy of the painting of the attack during 4th war patrol. Have you had time to do that, yet?

And - have you had time to get a better copy of the painting of the attack during the fourth war patrol? The one I have has vertical lines all through it.

Are you at your winter home? If so, I will try to call you tomorrow. I did find a copyright attorney, and I want to tell you about that.
