The large US Flag on the stage was a popular place for
shipmates to get that "Patton Photo"
Here Mike Lanier, Bob Freeman, Al Siegel, and John Noll
- the founding members of the USS Newport News Museum &
Memorial Foundation -
ham it up for the camera. You just can't pry these guys apart at a
Reunion!

John Noll delivers Memorial Service, reading names of
past shipmates,
while Al Siegel tolls the bell for each... gone but not forgotten.

past chairman, "Rags" Ragland,
presented to the Museum by his shipmates and now a tolling tradition at
our Memorials
