Request for Help Locating Wahoo Crew Family Members

I received the following email message this morning.

Posted Wednesday November 8th, 2006

Aloha, Ed,

I am the official point of contact for the Wahoo families and the Memorial Ceremony, planned for 11 October 2007 here at Bowfin Park. We are now in contact with the families of 45 of the 80 crew members. If you know anyone who is either a relative of a lost crewmember, or a former Wahoo man or his family (there are 6 living that we communicate with), please ask them to email me at education@bowfin.org, or call (808) 423-1341.

I will put you on our mailing list for email announcements from the Wahoo Project. Whatever you and your news feeds can do to help us get in touch with as many of the Wahoo families as possible will be greatly appreciated.

Sincerely yours,

Charles R. Hinman
