in General

The third and final article in NPR’s series about the USS Kirk is now complete. This third story is really a continuation of the first story, although they are all related. It sort of went like this:

  1. Kirk’s part in the evacuation of Saigon
  2. The July2010  reunion of Kirk officers and crew and our Vietnamese friends
  3. Kirk’s part in the rescue of the Vietnamese Navy

This third story can be found on NPR’s website (story 3).
