I have contact info for Falo. Not sure I recognize the other names on the list. Was Paco a shorter Texan who live to surf?
I was with NORS Section of (NMCS) Group Supply 77-80. Did a deployment with 265, 79-80 on the Trip. Lt. Col. Anthes was CO. Gunner Hannaford was there as well. Gil Hodges (I think) was the civilian tech rep.

Hi SlickJarhead,
The name of Falo sounds familiar. I believe he use to work in the SRS for HM&S-24 and if he is the one I am thinking of, he was a Sgt at the time I first meet him And I believe he was also a Samoan. As for Paco, I would have to ask couple of the guys who I am still in contact to see if they remember who was Paco. I don't remember no Texan who lived to surf. I remember we had 2 Gunners and one of the was Gunner Hannaford when I was there but the name of Gil Hodges does sounds familiar as well.

Cool....That would be great if I could get in touch with him. I just hope he remembers me though.
I think I remember someone was telling me that LtCol Hannaford who was at K-Bay had been station at Cherry Point and lives in the area. But didn't have no other information.
I live here in Hubert but work over in Cherry Point myself.

Hi SlickJarhead,
Sorry for it has been a while since I last post but I was talking to one of the guys who I worked with back in K-Bay from '79 - '83 and we were talking about some of the guys we remember and I came up with couple of names that he hasn't heard in a long time. One of them was Falo and I had told him that I had gotten some information that he was living in the San Francisco area and ask me if I can find out exactly where Falo is living, we both can look him up. Now mind you I only knew him by Sgt. Falo and that is it. I don't remember his last name so that would be a problem so if you know his full name that would be great.
Now, as for Gunner (LtCol) Hannaford, do you know exactly where he is living so that I can see if I can get in touch with him? But if not I will see if I can but would be great just to nail it down closer.
There was a Gunny who was also there in K-Bay who went on and did 30 years and retire as a 1st Sgt at Cherry Point. I was told he retire sometime after 2003.
I forgot to ask about the guy who name was Paco but I will get on Facebook and ask couple of guys if they remember him. As soon as I find out, I will let you know.
Hope to hear from you.
Until then!
