 Bob.

I have picked out certain pictures of my times with the 594th in the SW Pacific out of dozens in my collection. Many of them are either of little general interest, or of very poor quality. So I hope what I am sending will be OK for you to use.

 I am sending:

1 Operational Report (4 pages)

1 Instructional sheet used on boarding the U. S. S. Lindenwald

 9 Pictures (#1, 23, 26, 27, 31, 57, 72, 126, 135 and 1 unnumbered picture)

These are my only copies so are priceless to me. They MUST be returned. I am sure I can trust you, or I would not be sending them to you. I hope you are happy with them; and that I will see them on the Internet next time I visit my son, Doug, in Battle Creek.

 Regards:
