Memorial Day Services at WW II Submarine Memorial

MEMORIAL DAY SERVICES TO BE HELD AT WWII SUBMARINE MEMORIAL   . . . ABOARD NAVAL WEAPONS STATION SEAL BEACH

SEAL BEACH, CALIF. The United States National Submarine Memorial West, located at Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach, will be the site of annual public Memorial Day services Monday, May 30.

The 11:00 am observance will include the emotional “tolling the boats” ceremony, during which the name of each of the 52 U.S. submarines lost during World War Two is read aloud, along with the fate of each crew, as a bell is tolled.

The guest speaker will be Commander Brien W. Dickson, the Commanding Officer of the attack submarine USS Jefferson City (SSN 759).

The free event will be open to the public and is hosted by the Los Angeles Area “Diesel Boaters” Chapter of the U.S. Submarine Veterans of World War II, and the Los Angeles-Pasadena Base of the United States Submarine Veterans, Inc.

The submarine memorial is located aboard the Naval Weapons Station at 800 Seal Beach Boulevard, between Westminster Avenue and Pacific Coast Highway, in the City of Seal Beach.

(Editor’s note: We’ve gone to the submarine memorial on Seal Beach Blvd. on several occasions.  It is a very emotional monument when one looks at the losses these brave men had during the early years of the war.  One can only imagine what a moving experience this will be for all those present next Monday.)

For more information contact the Naval Weapons Station Public Affairs Officer, Mr. Gregg Smith, at (562) 626-7215.  More information about the National Submarine Memorial site is also available online at http://www.cnic.navy.mil/SealBeach/index.htm.

Would YOU take 2 laps in the Grand Prix – Free

Kyle Mohan takes Bill Lovelace on a 2 lap screamer in the Grand Prix Pace car.

Quite a ride….even a dedicated member of the Long Beach Police Association get a little shivver when he flying into those 180 degrees turns at speed.

This is a great video…especially when you realize the guy holding the camera is also holding his breakfast in!

Bill tried to get in Danica Patrick’s car….but that didn’t work out

A secret spot before the Long Beach Grand Prix

Every year the Long Beach Grand Prix for 3 days draws hundreds of thousands of people..but not too many stop by the Loew’s parking lot on Bellflower Blvd.

Some are totally into “Open Wheel Racing”; some are just here to participate in the pageant that is part of every open wheel race in the world  and some just to see Danica Patrick win again. (She’s the only woman to ever win an open wheel contest)  Rumors are this will be her last open wheel race.  After Sunday she may spend all her time on the NASCAR circuit after this weekend.

However for the  past several years there has been a sort of secret meeting place for those very special group of drivers who can afford to drive  those beautiful pieces of art known as Lamborghini’s.

Its not a car show, per se, but what else can you call it when 40 or 50 owners of 1/2 million dollar vehicles meet in  a quiet out of the way mall parking lot for a few hour before one of the most exciting auto race days in the U.S.

And you can trust me on this….when you look over these autos, all in pristine condition you would most likely not trade any one of them for one of those open wheel racers.

They gather at the parking lot on Bellflower Blvd in Long Beach, just north of the 405 freeway.  They start getting there about 9 a.m.   There is no charge because they don’t consider it a show…they are just meeting fellow Lamborghini owners from all over the continent who have driven here to see their brethern.

I don’t know for sure they’ll be there again this year.  They don’t invite me but I’ve been attending for the last three years and I encourage you to drop by also.

Don’t worry…you’ll see the cars off by  themselves near the Lowe’s Hardware store. One doesn’t park a car like this in an 8 foot parking space.

Who knows Mark Sanchez (Jets QB) may show up again?

USS Dewey Open House Cancelled.

Unfortunately the Open House scheduled for the USS Dewey this Sunday was cancelled.

It was up in the air for several days and but then it was confirmed.

No reason was given but one must assume that the strife in the Middle East could well be the culprit.

QUAKE UPDATE – Over 500 dead and evacuation of thousands near nuclear plant!

The quake was 1000 times more powerful than the one in New Zealand three weeks ago.

The death toll is unfortunately rising dramatically.  TV photos of the Tsunami in Japan show hundreds of cars being swept to see as well as large trawlers and fishing boats being tossed like cordwood.

the quake was over 400 miles long and lasted over 5 minutes.  Fortunately Tokyo has some of the strictest building codes in the world so downtown Tokyo buildings have withstood much of the damage.  Elsewhere there is a story that an entire passenger train has disappeared.

THE EARTHQUAKE WAS OFF SHORE OF JAPAN AND IT WAS THE LARGEST EVER RECORDED TO HIT JAPAN AN 8.9 MAGNITUDE MONSTER EARTHQUAKE.

JAPANESE LOSS OF LIFE WAS FIRST ANNOUNCED AS 32 DEAD….BUT THAT IS EXPECTED TO RISE DRAMATICALLY.
