Oakleaf Akleaf The Oakleaf March 2006/ THETHE AKLEAFAKLEAF The Newsletter of the Navy Supply Corps FoundationOO March 2006 Lowell “Dutch” Reade provides Foundation withTHETHE its largest bequest AKLEAF When Navy Supply Corps Foundation officials learned that the Foundation would be receiving its largest giftOO ever, there was one word to describe their reaction. “Flab- bergasted!” is how retired RADM Don Hickman, Chairman of the Foundation, de- scribed his reaction to the news contained in a call from the attorney for the estate of retired Supply Corps CDR Lowell A. “Dutch” Reade in August 2004. “He had not contacted anyone at the Foundation,” Hickman recalled, and he was unknown to Foundation officials. However, those who knew Dutch Reade, who died without any remaining family, were not surprised to hear that this bequest had been made, and with so little fanfare. According to Dick McFarland, retired Executive Director of the former Ships Parts Control Center, “to say that Dutch Reade was a private person would be an understatement.” McFarland, who called CDR Lowell A. “Dutch” Reade, SC, USN (Ret.), pictured with his wife, Mary, in 1961. Reade his mentor, and whose association with him went back to 1967 put it this way: Base Realignment and Closure “Never in the history of the Supply Corps has it had a more ardent supporter.” Commission actions are final By LT Sean Urban, Public Affairs Officer, Navy Supply Corps School The early years The results of the Base Realignment transfer date has yet to be set.
