Narmates - there is a Submarine Cold War Memorial in Charleston SC near Patriot's Point. They have benches for boats that can be purchased for $3391.90. I was recently there visiting and they look pretty nice but USS NARWHAL is missing.

So I am starting this fund raiser to get us a bench. If you can donate, that would be great. We should have a bench there to memorialize NARWHAL's time in Charleston. This is focused on SSN-671.

Here is a link to the website. The exec director is Captain Rusty Pickett who I remember as a Squadron or Training instructor or something. I think he commanded Lipscomb out of Charleston. I am sure Captain Lincoln will set me straight.

I am starting the fund raiser with the first donation of $500. Let's get this thing done and installed!

As soon as I get 50% of the funds I will send the deposit and get things going. All funds go to the memorial bench. If any are left over we will give them to the Cold War Memorial.

Thanks

Bob
