Craft CB photos

[Fred W. Schneider III]

I organized a small mantrap in Pittsburgh in 1958 ... small means only 8
passengers.  One of those people was a Patrick Joseph Hamill (or Hammill) who
hailed from Pawtucket, Rhode Island.  I went into the army shortly
thereafter; he went into the navy.  The correspondence lapsed when I returned
to civilian life and entered college.   This note reminded me of Joe.  Any of
you know him???
