Pat “PT” Culhane served as a Sonarman aboard USS Thomas J. Gary on Deep Freeze 65-66 and 66-67. We met again at the Gary reunion at Albany, NY, July 2000. It was our first meeting in over 33 years, it was amazing how we could recall the smallest details from so long ago. PT sent along these photos for the web page.
