| Message | On April 16 I had the priveledge of visiting and having lunch with Burt Huls Lt XO 52 54. What a great time we had sharing old memories of our times on the Spangler. When I refered to him as Mr Huls, he responded by saying, "Jim we are no longer in the Navy, just call me Burt." Old habits die hard and I will always think of him as Mr Huls. He was a great officer and a good XO. We talked about several other of the officers and Capt. Laws. All and all we had a good group of officers and I guess that is what made her such good ship |
