Another Swifty found

Yesterday I was at the annual Snohomish Antique M/C show. I was wearing my vest with the Swift Emblem on the back, along with the patches of almost all of my Navy duty stations. A man passing by commented on my bike and then commented on the Nam pins on my vest. A VN flag with year on top. I wear eight. He mentioned he was in-country DaNang. Which unit I asked. He stated COSDIV 12. Well look at my back I said. His name is Alvah E. Setzer. He was a JO, OINC of mostly the 56 during 1968. He was on patrol when the 19 went down. Jim Steffes I think you may wish to talk to him. His email, asetzer@msn.com Phone no. 425 775 3349. A very nice fellow.

He is a real Swiftee, he is listed on Larry Waz's site under Unknown personnel/boat assignments.
