I am having trouble with Netscape. Please email me so I can tell you about my father who served on the Wedderburn during 1944-45. He was on board when it entered Tokyo Bay. Thank you. Amy Bennett-Forsyth

Hello,

How nice to hear from you so quickly.

I think that actually the problem is with my WP 6.0 program. It suffered some sort of nervous breakdown when my husband tried to use a very old printer with it. Ever since then we have had difficulty in relationship to the type fonts. I have uninstalled it twice and reinstalled it but we do not have all the fonts that we use to. So, when I was in Netscape looking at your site and I attempted to email you, the page/area that pops up with the spaces for me to type into appears, but I can not read most of the type face on it. I had to try typing in each white area before I realized that the bottom one was the right one. The type face on the far left/stage right is all cryptic looking. I think I need to go and change fonts in Netscape, but I didn't think I could do that while online.

So, anyway....the reason that I wrote to you is that my father, Harold A. Bennett was a Quartermaster 2/Class on the Wedderburn during 1944 and '45. He says to tell you that he was/is a ' Plankowner '. He also kept the log during that time. He was the first American on Japanese soil after they entered Tokyo Bay. He has attended the last two reunions; St. Louis and Seattle.

He has several pages that he has written to help document the Wedderburn's actions during that time period. If I have him send them to me, would you like me to type them up and forward them to you ?

Do you attend the reunions ? He told me that he thinks the next one is in Boston. Do you know if that is true ?

Thank you very much,

Amy
