    Marine Corps issue Nomex with another pair of Army issue and got hold of an old pair of all leather gloves but the seams split in those. Used the Nomex for fall hunting gloves until good camo gloves came along. Nomex gloves are now folded in my flight helmet on the shelf above my too small...

    Intruder's view of the PNW

    Nice way to wrap up a career. That said is there no longer a Nomex glove requirement for tactical aircraft? Other than flight helment, my Nomex gloves are about the only uniform item that still fits me! Retired in from service 1988 SGT Bill Uffelman USMC F4 Phantom Phixer and H34/UH1 Crew...

    Places to dock and explore in Chesepeake

    Lou is correct -- Waterman's is the place. Sit so you can watch the entry to the harbor -- always fun as it is relatively narrow and sailboats mixed with big power boats make for great people watching 8>)) Bill Uffelman In Ocean View DE for a while longer

    Working on it being a C Dory although she loves the Ranger EC 21 for sale at Gratitude in Rock Hall MD. With 7 knot currents through the Indian River Inlet would definitely have to time runs out ot the ocean in the EC 21. Semper Fi back at you. SGT Bill Uffelman

    Obituary of Member Marvin B Murphy III

    I did not know Marvin personally, but have a deep sense of loss for a fellow graduate of the AE school at NAS JAX. He clearly was taken too soon. RIP. SGT Bill Uffelman 6243 (F4 Electrician)
