**008** Found and spoke with Seawolf James ‘Jay” W. PERKINS, LTJG, Dets 5 & 9, 7/31/1970 to 7/27/1971. Found him only because he thought my call was a nurse that was supposed to come over! I had been calling a number in Tampa, FL, for a while, but always said “Mailbox is full please try again later”. He picked up and was surprised to hear from a Seawolf. He just had surgery 2-3 days ago and was on pain med's making him loopy, but we had a good talk and sending him the stuff. Living in Tampa, FL not too far from Savannah Reunion next Aug!

Of the 2,552 confirmed Seawolf names, 368 Navy Seawolves still remain to be found, which includes 29 Plank Owners, and 6 prior Association Members we’ve lost contact with. We now have 500 confirmed DAT (19.59%).

Another good job  Dan. Jay was on my Det when i was the OINC of Det -5. He is a good guy. Glad he is in the fold.
