Welcome back.. Now I know I'm gettin old when the 688s are getting canned. The 688 was in the big shop at EB when I got out in 74 and she is still active. But several have been broke up in the past 10 years.
I have a piece of FY 80 Steel from the Parche getting mailed to me from a friend in Bremerton after her breakup is compleated.
I will find a sacred place among my "stuff" for it to reside.
Be Well/DBF
Walt
