Dub you gave me first airplane ride at Pearl Harbor during the Korean War. You were part of the crew that towed targets for aircraft to shoot at for practice. I was sacred to death. We both served in the navy during that period. Rest in peace, you were a great guy. Ray Matthews

Mr. Yowell,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the USN during the Cold War. Millions of Americans slept safe at night because you and your fellow Servicemen stood ready to defend our Country. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
