- I am the proud son of my Dad who served in the Navy between 58' -62'. I am soooo proud of my Dad for the man that the Navy helped mold him into and the patriotic person he is. As mentioned below, because of his military background (although not a career military man) I would like to present him with a drawing I am working on of a S2F Tracker that he flew along with a nice plaque detailing his ranking, time served, Commanding Officers name and whatever else I can find out about during the time he served. I would like to honor him now while he is still around and let him know just how proud I am of my father.

- What Were Your Feelings When Your Sailor Joined The Navy:
- I am actually the proud son of my Dad who served in the Navy between 1958 - 1962. I am attempting to find out as much info as I can about my Dad so that I can present him with a nice gift on Father's Day. He served in Corpus Christi, TX and flew on the S2F Tracker and was stationed at the base. I would like to find fellow comrads who served with my Dad, the name of his Comanding Officer and anything else that would make for a nice presentation. I do pencil drawings and am in the works of drawing a couple different views of the Tracker along with a plaque that details info of the Tracker, Rankings of my Dad and so-on. I am attempting to do this behind his back for a nice surprise. Any help with info, contacts of fellow guys who served with my Dad to photos would be greatly appreciated. I am also looking for patches that they would have worn during the 58' -62' years. I believe they were the VT-28's? You can e-mail me at youcanfindme@wowway.com. Thanks again!!!!

Need help locating former Navy commrads of my Dad

Hello,
My Dad's name is William Robert Visnaw and he served in Corpus Christi, TX from 1958 thru 1962. He flew on the S2F Tracker and I also believe he was on the USS Antietam for a short stretch during those years. I am very proud of who the Navy helped mold him into (but of course I do need to give as much credit if not more to his mother) :) Although there is a side of him that if he was anything like he is today that he was back then, then you will know of him being…
