ALL HANDS who served on the 655 are invited to attend the
7th Reunion of the HENRY L. STIMSON

Many of you left Charleston after the Navy and  your time on the 655; others retired in the area and have been here for years; some have returned every few years and ejoyed the Lowcountry. For many of you it will be the first time you've returned to the Charleston area since you left the STIMSON. Whichever it might be, it will be great to see our shipmates here once more.
