[MRCA] USS SLATER museum ship

[Christopher Bowne]

Just voted - knock on wood, Slater appears to have the lead at this point.  I will pass the word around on the Old Mil Rad Nets this weekend.  Where is the ship moored in/near Albany?  As a kid, I remember seeing all of the Mothball Fleet that was moored in the Hudson down near West Point.  I think they were somewhere in the vicinity of Stony Point and the Bear Mountain Bridge.  I believe a  lot of them were put back in service during the Vietnam War period.

Guys, I hope this meets the list guidelines, it's sure in our interest in restoring military radio equipment.
Some of you may know about this old WW2 destroyer escort, well they are competing for grant funding through the Albany NY newspaper. They could use some help. All you have to do is click the link, select the Slater and vote. The competition is fierce so vote for this worthy cause.

It's the final round of the Capital Region Gives contest. We need everybody's help to share this as far and as wide as you can, and vote for the USS SLATER. We're up against several other worthy not-for-profits. But USS SLATER is special because she was saved by veterans, and restored by veterans, to honor veterans. She stands as a symbol of their courage and the sacrifices that have protected this country and enabled all of the other agencies to do their good work.

These guys put in 17,000 Volunteer hours aboard the ship last year. All we want you to do is click a link.

We need you to vote, and for everybody to share this link. Spread the word for USS SLATER! Let this be our turn. Let's share this and win this!
