Mike, now that I am retired for 1 year I have time to re-write my file for you , as I look at this web-site everyday and look forward to seeing old comrades and now as well. This site is awesome and you deserve a ''Bravo Zulu'' for your thoughtfulness and hard work to keep this site for all us ''gut'' and ''former gut robbers'' to enjoy. Gary ''BUBBA'' Bass
