**********************************
My brother was on the swift boats in 68, 69 and 70. His name is Gary W. Harvey from Fayetteville, WV. He was a Radarman 2nd Class when he was discharged. He’s in a Veterans Hospital in Roanoke, VA and could sure use some friends. I was a GMM1 stationed on heavy cruisers, The USS Chicago, USS Albany and USS Columbus.
I know that sometimes there are members in these organizations that knew the other guys, is it possible you could put out the question and see if there is anyone that served with him. I would appreciate it. My email is lzh@zanetech.com .
Thanks,

I did not find Gary Harvey in the member database nor on the COSRON ONE crew list. I have not contacted the author of this e-mail so I have no additional info.
Maybe one of you out there can follow-up with the brother.
