Ray informed NERA that "we 3 Amigos" and the fact that we
had our annual Erie NERA are all original Charter mem-
Navy Picnic last Saturday, bers, and Life Members, of our
August 11, and had a really big Oliver Hazard Perry Chapter
surprise. A few of our old time which also started almost 40
shipmates completely surprised years ago seems almost impos-
my picnic committee, which sible to believe. I'm hoping you
included me, by presenting us might put the picture and info
with three similar but each dif- in the next Mariner as a follow
ferent plaques in recognition of up to the article you ran in the
our past 40 years of service to our last issue. My two buddies in the
shipmates, families and commu- picture are MRC Doug Rogers
nity. It caught me so completely (to my right, your left) and
by surprise I can't start to explain how I felt. I know my MLCS "Andy" Ed Anderson to my left. We're all retired
two buddies feel the same way. We have been dubbed "the Navy for more than 20 years now but still going strong."

Congratulations Ray, Doug and Andy. This was well deserved recognition
for your amazing dedication and friendship. NERA salutes you.
