In my haste to get a message board up for USTDC,
I forgot part of the command title. The correct
name is United States Taiwan Defense Command /
Military Assistance Advisory Group (USTDC/MAAG).

Served from 61' through 63' reporting to Adms. writer YNC Vordenbaum, Vadm Smoot' writer. Adm Smoot was relieved by Vadm C L Melson who'w writer was YNCS Marvin Childers. The Aide for VADM Smoot was a mustang LCDR Hollingsworth. The Adie for VADM Melson was LCDR C T Hansen who would later retire as a VADM himself. I left the Island in Oct. 1963 to attend MMA school under a rate change program offered by the Navy. VADM Melson approved my request chit for that and was a great supporter of mine. Completed MMA and later USN Nuclear Power School Bainbride/West Milton NY. Plank Owner, USS TRUXTUN DLG(N) 35. Left the Navy in July 1969 as an MM1 Nuclear Qualified Surface. Been back to Taipee, Taichung, Kaoshung and Keelung (sp?) over many years during my work life with a large pump company. It's of course changed considerably. Club 63 is now the very expensive American Club. The old Linku and Officer Clubs status are unknown and of course the old FRA club is gone with the wind. Regards
