I served aboard the Sphinx from May '87 to May '88. I've been trying to make the reunions, but work schedule often gets in the way. Once I retire I plan to make as many as there are. As some of you may know, I am still in the process of producing and editing a documentary about the significance of the Sphinx. Along with shipmates Dennis Klein and James Campion and with Cameraman Stephen Coghill, I was able to capture High Def footage of the ships dismantling in Chesapeake, VA. Along with footage shot aboard the Sphinx while on the James River and 11 hours of interviews, I'm still piecing the film together and will one day premiere it at a future reunion. I still need help from former shipmates to find as much film, video and photos as they can to contribute to the project. All materials will be returned and each contributor will be given film credit. Copies will work, but I would rather have the original due to the better quality and like I said, it will be returned to you. Please look through your archives and help the cause to remember the USS Sphinx. Thank you in advance to all my shipmates.
