Because of my work schedule and a back injury, I have not been updating the crew lists very much. If you sent in your information, I have recieved it, and will post it when I can.

I have added 59 names to this page that have not been sorted yet. Please check below.

The Crew Members list has been split and alphabetized into four separate lists, one each for CV-8, CV/CVA/CVS-12.
