    Florida Keys Sea Heritage Journal VOL. 24 NO. 1 FALL 2013 USS SHARK OFFICIAL QUARTERLY PUBLICATION OF THE KEY WEST MARITIME HISTORICAL SOCIETY Key West On the Edge By Robert Kerstein Over its history Key West has been many different things to many different people. Situated on a small island, only two miles wide and four miles long, and bounded by the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean, it was once the largest city in Florida; at another time one of the wealthiest cities, per capita, in the United States; and at yet another time, one of the poorest. Blessed with its beautiful setting and tropical climate, Key West has, like many attractive tourist destinations, undergone a mighty struggle over its identify. Buffeted over the years by economic forces and national cultural changes, not to mention the occasional hurricane, Key West has long been one of America’s most unique and intriguing places. In 1983, it elected Richard Heyman, the first openly gay mayor in the United States. And in 1989, citizens chose Captain Tony Tarrachino as mayor, who, as described by the Washington Post, “had been a … gambler, gunrunner, saloonkeeper, fishing boat captain, ladies’ man and peerless raconteur.” Historian Charlton Tebeau concluded that during the decades (Continued on page 3) The cover of Key West On the Edge.

  • Howard Dudgeon: “One of the Medal of Honor Winners Lived in Waco, Texas, Robert Lewis Howard
    Regarding the Vietnam Memorial Wall: (A Vietnam veteran came up with the idea for the memorial; The wall was designed by a college student; It took less than eight months to build the memorial; The wall is made of black granite from Bangalore, India; No federal funds were needed to create the memorial.) David Walsworth: “Sobering reminder. God bless America and those who have served and are serving.” Howard Dudgeon: “One of the Medal of Honor winners lived in Waco, Texas, Robert Lewis Howard. He died December 23, 2009.” Larry Thomas: “Thanks for sharing “ Clara Sue Griffis Arnsdorff: That was really interesting---sure hit home with me---we can't forget. As a military wife I remember many who didn’t return from that conflict. When we lived in Calif my husband flew transport planes into RVN and often returned with coffins loaded in the plane. We left Calif for Hawaii where his squadron flew 24 hour command post support and frequently flew to RVN to pick up General Westmoreland for a conference on Oahu. Those were early stages of the war. In 1972 he went unaccompanied to Taiwan. They flew cargo into RVN and dropped paratroopers and supplies. I often wonder how many of those boys are listed on that wall. I was in Waco during that time, and every time a C130 was shot down I waited for a notification. Fortunately none came. Lots of bullets had to be removed from those transports. I know many other WHS grads have stories of these turbulent times, and most are more relevant than mine.
