I was standing right beside Mr. Guiao when this terrible incident happened, i was hit on the side of my head also and remained in medical for several days in shock. I have talked to Steve Harvey who was also on the main deck, and he gave me some disturbing information that i didnt know about the incident. I was only 19 years old at the time of the incident, I am now 46 and i have never forgot this tragic day. I remember that Mr. Guiao didnt sail with us to the Indian Ocean, but came when we got to Diego Garcia. He was my division officer at the time in the S-3 division, and i was pulling a 2nd tour of mess duty, and working in the laundry. For the short period that i knew him i respected him to the utmost, and will never forget him. If Patty Schneider(Kelso),Milton Harvey (Harvey i remember you just like it was yesterday), or any other members read this please email me at jdr1960@hotmail.com.

Hard working, dedicated to duty and his department. Extremely professional yet down to earth. I was a part of supply from 1977 thru 1981. We worked extremely hard for the Supply Team.
