I served on the Sampson from Feb 69 to Aug 71, first on the deck force then as a Weapons Yeoman under LT. Miller. I shared a duplex with Bob Dupler, Greg Severson and Steve (Andy) Anderson all STG’s in the 3rd Division. Unfortunately Bob and Greg have passed away. If anyone knows the whereabouts of Steve Anderson or LT Jim Rivers I sure would like to hear from you. I know Steve was from New York but there are probably a couple thousand Steve Anderson’s in New York. I am also friends on FB with Don Baker, STG1.
