I would like to know when we left Bremerton WA to go to San Diego CA. Then when we left San Diego to go to Vietnam. I know we stopped at Pearl Harbor for 4 or 5 days. How many days did it take to make the transit? On The web site www.mrfa.org/apb39.htm USS Mercer APB 39 arrived Vung Tau 31 July 1968 I think we arrived at the same time. It's been over 30 years and I need help remembering.

I do not know how many of the crew has been troubled by their time aboard the ship. I have been in treatment for over 5 years. Again like many times before I am starting have problems it is hitting me hard. I am going again into depression, anger, rage and much more. I have no way of venting my anger and rage at this time but I just bottle it up. I now live in Bremerton and use the VA for all my medical.
