	Hi Shipmates; Back in October I had the pleasure of spending two weeks in Hawaii with Elaine,my Son Bruce and his wife Susan.The first week was spent on Maui, and the second week was spent on Oahu.As on past vacations I always take a full day to spent at Pearl Harbor.Having been there on numerous trips I always find it very emotional to walk the hallowed streets of Pearl and really enjoy it. While waiting for our Naval launch to depart for the Arizona Memorial we walked over to the USS BOWFIN MUSEUM,while touring the USS BOWFIN I engaged in a conversation with a sailor doing Docent work on the Sub. I was wearing my Bushnell cap and he became very curious.After a few minutes he suggested I go see Charles Hinman, he is the Director and curator at the Submarine Museum, he told me he had files on all US Subs as well as US SUB. TENDERS.That is all I needed to hear and I headed for the office. Met Mr. Hinman, he showed me a file on the BUSHNELL that almost dropped me off the seat I was sitting on.I asked him if it were possible to get copies of each as cost was not a question, I just wanted them. He promised to scan them to my Son and then to me. Just yesterday he scanned me a group of Bushnell pictures that I have never seen.I immediately forwarded them to Jerry & Sherman to include on our web site, I am sure you will all be as pleased as I was to see them.Yes it is a small world.ENJOY-****REUNION SOON **** Sunshine Club/Turtle News Ben
