  • Quapaw Association Newsletter
    THE MIGHTY “Q” ISSUE JAN 2013 PAGE 1 EDITORIAL: This is the January 2013 Newsletter. This has been a very eventful year for the USS Quapaw. On December 12, 2011 the USS Quapaw sank, creating an environmental disaster to the wildlife around Port Richmond. For weeks, the Quapaw was on the local news. The Coast Guard worked to prevent the old oil and other slimy stuff from contaminating the Bay Area. Finally, on February 6, 2012, the holes were plugged and the Quapaw was refloated. From July to November 2012, the Quapaw and the Moctobi were salvaged. The Quapaw is no more, except in our hearts. See “The Final Voyage” later on in this newsletter. The NAFTS 2012 Reunion was in Norfolk, VA. There were several Quapaw sailors and family members in attendance and everyone enjoyed themselves. More about this later on. The NAFTs Reunion 2013 will be in Pensacola, FL in October 2013. As we learn more, we will let you all know. Freda Please keep in touch. My phone numbers are: H 256-835-0137; C 256-238-3293.
