Received on 6/28/99 from Ralph
Carpenter. Here is a series of the Moctobi and crew shots taken in the
period before I got onboard in 1968. From left to right: #1 The Moctobi at
the Alpha Docks outside of Pearl Harbor during the winter of 1966. It's
pretty dark in the photo but what light there is shows a proud silhouette
none-the-less. #2 "Snipes" EM3 Bobbie Joe Hall, EM3 Roger
Vetter, FN Harold Sandroff, EM3 Ralph Carpenter and EM2 Jay Smith pose for
a picture on the dock backn 1965. #3 IC3 Gilbert Boissey (left) and EM3
Ralph Carpenter (right) With his back to the camera is SF1 Larry Roberts.
#4. The Moctobi anchored off Ringman Reef. #5 Another shot anchored off
Ringman Reef. The ship is assisting USAF bombing from high altitude with
electronic assistance, i.e., target a small barge and beacon. Thanks for
the great photos Ralph !
