HMS Belfast

From Stan Packer, HMS Belfast

To All The Veterans: USS Rochester CA-124

Now Hear This:

This is Stan Packer of the H.M.S. Belfast Association sending you his good wishes and hopes your doing well today.

Hi Shipmates: I and many others on H.M.S. Belfast had the pleasure of serving, making friends, and sharing some of our liberty hours ashore in Japan with you guys during 1950-1952 and the Korean War. The memories of those years are still with me, and being a member of the U.S Navy Cruiser Sailors Association, I was hoping that there may some of the shipmates of your ship, that would like to reflect back in time to some of the places that we new, and what we did all those years ago. My Email address is stanpacker@msn.com and for those that don’t use a computer, my home address is as follows. Mr. S.N. Packer, Holme Croft, Holme Lane, Rockley, Retford, Notts. DN22 OQY England.

My sincere best wishes, Stan Packer. Ex Royal Navy.
