Discription
This website deals with my travels in the Pacific in the US Navy 1961-1965. My son Rick did a lot of the work to put together this website, and it was originally his idea, which is where the title Dads Travels, comes from.
During my tour in the Navy I worked as a photographer, an interest I continue to pursue to this day. Being a photographer gave me the chance to document a lot of my experiences, something not every-one in the Navy is lucky enough to have.
My hope is that this website brings back long forgotten memories for those who were there or give viewers who weren't a chance to see what Pacific- Asia and the US Navy looked like almost 50 years ago. Rich Searle
