Recently people have been joining me on my Sunday Walks in Downtown Albany. Typically, I walk in Albany when I'm scheduled as a tour guide on the USS Slater. A slide show and a map are detailed at this blog entry. I plan on walking on Memorial Day, Monday, May 27. You can contact me at: dedocent@gmail.com.

More on the USS SLATER (www.ussslater.org).

6/7/2009 - Travelling, no tours


USS George Clymer (APA-27) at anchor off the Hawaiian Islands, 1964


This weekend I was travelling, so I wasn't available to give Slater tours. During the week I discussed this blog with an old friend who served on the USS George Clymer, APA-27. The Clymer was a little bigger than a tin-can (roughly 10 times bigger).


I believe he worked in the Radio Room. This link (Navy Radios) contains a few pictures of shipboard radio equipment including photos from both the Slater and the Clymer.
