I am a retired (TDRL) BU From 1979-1990 was in NMCB-74 and NMCB-1. From time to time wish i was still in. I am in support of The Seabees and all our Troops in Arms may God Bless them all.

Hello to all Seabees past and present! I am the widow of PO1 Raymond P. (Smoke) Guntharp. He was a very proud U.S. Navy Seabee (Ret). He served two tours in Vietnam and retired out of Gulfport, MS in 1983. Cancer claimed his life on April 14, 2001. God, how I miss him!! I know that I will see him again one day and that keeps me going plus our 15 year old son. I am so thankful to have his son who is so very much like him in looks as well as character. Ray, you got there before me, Baby, but don't give up on me! I'll be there! I will always love you!

Was with 121 first deployment Phu Bai, looking for men who remember 1 sept 67 mortar rocket and small arms fire attack. My seperation papers authorizes a FLEET MARINE FORCE COMBAT OPERATIONS INSIGNIA FOR PARTICIPATION IN ACTUAL COMBAT ACTION. Trying to determine if I qualify for the Combat Action Ribbon. I was told a letter had to be inserted in personnel record file by an officer. ANY COMMENTS?

NMCB 74 from 1973 - 1977 PW Argentia, New Foundland 1977 - 1979.
Great site !!!

I'm an Equipment Operator 2nd class petty officer in the United States Naval Reserve. I enjoy and take pride in what I do, by serving my fellow Americans in our fight for freedom. I am new to this site. And from what I have seen, I think it's very cool. Keep up the good work. OOH-RAH SEABEES; WE BUILD, WE FIGHT, CAN DO!

I am looking for information regarding the Construction Battalion Maintence Unit 623 that my uncle Leon Smith belonged to during WWII.
He was a Machinist Mate 2nd Class.

Any info greatly appreciated.
