USS JOHN YOUNG (DD-973) - WAY TO GO SKIPPER!!
03 November 2010 | Charleston, SC
Cool & Rainy
Back in the mid-1970's Tom served in the commissioning crew of the new Spruance Class destroyer USS John Young (DD-973). On the First Tuesday in November 2010, our Commissioning Skipper, Captain Doug Menikheim, was elected to the Stillwater, MN City Council by a LANDSLIDE!! The vote was 65% for D.K. Menikheim and 35% for his opponent - not even close... To see a recent picture of Captain Menikheim and his lovely wife Mary Louise, and to read a short entry about him, please navigate our PHOTO GALLERY thusly: Crew, Family, and Friends / The Friends We Meet / then click on Doug's VOTE picture.
Way to go Skipper!!
