Toothy posted this on facebook not long ago -- I thought it was worth a repost here.

"I've found five Firehawks with athsma so far. If you were in Balad with Four/Five and you're having any sort of serious physical problems, please let me know."

Seawolf fly-in on the USS Midway tomorrow. Wings and Rotors Museum in Murietta, CA has restored a vintage UH-1 Huey, in HA(L)-3 Seawolf colors. They're flying the bird aboard the Midway tomorrow at 1100, with three Seawolf gunners aboard. A reception will follow. Donny Westbrook's retirement is shortly after that at 1400, over at HSC-85. Come one, come all!

He sent me an e-mail about three months ago, looking for a Firehawk coin for his shadow box. Haven't heard from him since. Anyone else?

Just wondering if anyone had any contact for John Hopewell. I heard he retired and moved back to Lancaster, Ca. I moved right really close to there and want to try and reconnect with him.
