[K6NCG] More K6NCG stuff

[David Royer]

 Hi Dave Sublette,  

I met Judith Stanek in 1962 on Melbourne Beach Florida, Her father was CTCM retired Lester Stanek.  His call sign W4NWY and his last duty station was in Japan.  I was then stationed at Cape Canaveral where I rode 13 FBM Submarines to test the launch capabilities of the equipment and crews.  My first Duty was on USNS Bowditch T-AGS-21 and in early 1961 in Trondheim Norway I went to see a cross country ski meet, and while there I slid on ice and bumped an elderly Gentleman and in my best Norsk I said Excuse me, he replied "It is not a problem," in perfect English.  A few months later I walked by a travel shop and there was a poster with his picture on it.  I asked my girlfriend "Who is this man?"  Her reply " Oh that is our King.  (Olav I learned later) and he bought me a cup of Coffee in the ski shack.  ETR3 has coffee on the King.... I was in awe later.  

Dave R.
