We both enjoyed the content immensely and will spend many hours in reading the book. You did a terrific job; well done. Regards, Captain John MingoGeorge, Got the books yesterday and WHAT A BOOK Thank you so much for your hard work on the book. The people who did not respond to your request for stories are really going to be sorry they arent in the book. Im going to donate one copy to my local library so the public in the Macon area can read about the Johnston.Thanks again for the book, Johnny Jonesy JonesGeorge, Got my book last night. Its fabulous Thanks for all your work in putting this together Mike GrazianoGeorge, got the book. Have already read most of it. It is really a great history and background of events regarding the Johnston. The book mentions a Johnston Association. How do I join?The book has triggered many memories of my time on the Johnston. After reading the stories in the book, especially those around the time period I was aboard, it seems my memories sometimes seem to be skewed one way or the other. I guess that happens as we grow older.In any case, it was great to read the stories. I did notice that there were few stories from the Snipes. I have some, so when I get the time, Ill write them down for you, hopefully for an updated version sometime down the road.Thanks again for all you did to put this book together. I know it must have been one hellova task, but, you did good.Paul JohnstonI received the book and am enjoying reading the various chapters some which awaken old and almost forgotten memories Good job you did putting it together.
