Those that have gone before

We (The Yorktown Chapter) have made a plaque that will be hanging in the Chief's Hut soon. It is a Memorial Plaque to recognize all the Yorktown Chapter Members that have Crossed the bar. If you know of any Yorktown Chapter Shipmates that passed on, could you send me their Names and Last rank held while on active duty so that we can add them to the "Yorktown CPOA Chapter Memorial Plaque". I[we] do not need any dates just name and last rank held.
Thank You

Another name for the plaque: MCPO Pat Dover. Pat was to be the primary delegate to the 1978 convention in Baltimore, he crossed the bar on sunday, the day before the opening of the convention.

Any chance of getting the list of names that are on this plaque?

I wonder if anyone thought of our famous bartender "Geno"...

Sorry about the delay on those pics. I was gearing up for the Academy and it got pushed aside. I will take the pics and post a list of the names after I get back to VA.
