From Military.com

THROUGHOUT AMERICAN HISTORY our military has provided for the  national defense and preserved our way of life. The American military is not a faceless body but a collection of individuals — patriots united by a legacy of selfless service and sacrifice. America's veterans know the cost of freedom and have never looked to others to pay that price.

THAT SPIRIT POWERS this rallying cry to veterans. Now is the time to find your brothers and sisters, those who also once bore the nation's burden. Look not solely to government agencies but to each other, as well. As ten percent of the American population, you have the ability to inform, to employ, to mentor, to heal — to change the lives of other veterans. Please Read & sign the Veterans Bill of Rights!    More................

Please send me your current name, address & email,    Bob

2nd Reunion pictures are coming!

I had the good fortune to be at the commissioning for the Texas in Galveston, TX on 9 Sept 2006.  The first lady was the primary speaker and there was about 10,000 people invited - much more and a lot warmer than the Indy commissioning in January at New London Sub base.  A line to the Texas is below - visit and sign their log.......Bob

The 697crew.com is for all shipmates who served onboard the Indy from the Commissioning crew to the Decommissioning crew and all others in between, this is going to be your site. A focal point for shipmates old, new and a variety of memorabilia. 
  
I have finished the design an "Indy Coin" in "Gold" or "Silver" finish, are now available for purchase on the net and if any are left at the 2007 Reunion. A portion of the price will go to the Indy Committee. In addition I have available a limited quantity of high quality Gold or Silver money clips with screw off top for ease of inserting or removing your Indy coin or your favorite casino chip!....Thanks Bob

Kudos to Howard and Mary Kligge and John & Agnes Petersen for creating a memorable 1st reunion

Please look around and if you have any updates or corrections please email me. I don't have all of the information that I need to complete the members area and what is listed for each. Does anyone have a chronological listing with dates of the home ports for the Indy? or perhaps the ports of call.. working on some ideas!
