Security Violation!
Marines: Drop your socks, grab your
weapons and man the new USS Canopus Association Marine Detachment
webpage.
Our
Marines are becoming more active in the Association and have sent in
group photos. I have decided to quarter them on the

Holy Loch Update
Our
Super Canopus Lifer Jim Hulse recently
decided he wanted a Guinness, so he left his home in Buffalo New York
and went to Sinbad’s.
While
there he took a few pictures to share with his shipmates. Click on

Rota
Harbor Update
|
A third pier
was under construction in February 2009.
Fred Beebe
(HT2 - 1976-1980 - R-1 Flex Hose and Pipe Shop) sent us a set of photos
of the completed pier.
Not
sure how he came by it. When Ed Pado and I were there in
2009, we
were told we may be shot if we were seen with a camera!
