I served in the Navy, a plankowner aboard the USS BOSTON (SSN-703) Decommissioned in 1999 and scrapped in 2002. Now I find myself in the unique cradle-to-grave position of helping to care for its remains at the Buffalo & Erie County Naval & Military Park. All that really remain are the sail and rudder shipped here in 2003 along with a few cleats. I feel like I'm caring for a vessel that met a premature and untimely demise. Now I care for her remains.
...Sort of.

Has it been almost TWO YEARS since I posted on this BLOG???
Well, shame on me! Well, as you can see, a lot has happened to the BOSTON sail, it has been painted, numbered and looks all nice and sparkling!
