By the way, I am the webmaster for a webpage sponsored by USSVI (Sub Vets). I am hoping to build a very comprehensive database of information for T2 vets so future communication will be much easier that it currently is. Please go to www/decklog.com/SSN-597.asp and complete a questionnaire so I can build/update a profile for you. The information you provide is accessible only to USSVI members, and you can even choose to block some of the information. Although you have to be a USSVI member to access the information of a crewmate, you do not need to be a member to register. Simply go to the website, click on "Crew List," then click on "Join the Crew." Complete the questionnaire. I will get a copy and create or update your profile.
