  Hi Ken

  I served on Bonnie 1969-1970 and Nipigon 1970-1972

  Your name sounds familiar. Were you on these ships during these times??

  My name is Dave Gallant (nickname spud) obviously from PEI and was an OS/AB sparker

  Hi again Ken

  What are u doing in Moncton. thought you were with NSLC in Sackville, NS. Saw you on the (RCN) Communicatiors web page a while ago. We had a heck of a good time on the Nipigon. I spent 4 out of 30 years on her and still the best time of my career. You have a great day.  Cheers  Ron

  Hi Ken;

  Yes I remember you...its been a long time. Other RPs were Jim Wright and Ron Hector. We had a lot of fun in those days, it was a good life and never a dull moment. anyone who says they don't miss it never put the effort in. Take care my friend; maybe someday someone will get us all together again for a snort and a yarn.

  Cheers
