This is Dick Dubbs, I served on the Ramsden. I don't know how Dave's address got involved with this message. It was a reply to a site that I came across while "googleing" I can't find it again. There was a photo of a Coast Guard DE coming thru one of the locks of the Panama Canal submitted by Pasqual Varallo, taken from the CGC Ramsden. Pat called it the Vance, another CG DE. I was aboard the Ramsden at that time and my recallection was that the "Richey" was the only other DE traveling with us. I have searched for the site for quite a while and can't find it. After checking USCGC Vance's movement logs and George, it has been found that Vance was not in Panama untill Oct 16 - 17. If you have any thoughts on this contact or
