I suppose that you get lots of suggestions re inclusion in the Aerograph. Wish to suggest a couple of more, if I may.
This is prompted by the note about the first Wave Master Chief. Interesting and appreciate it.
There are two other landmark chiefs that, in my opinion, merit mention.
First, Marybelle Kuegle.The first Wave to make AGC.She put on the hat in about 1950-51.
Secondly, James Larry Wherry.The first black man to make AGC.Am guessing that he made it in about 1970.I worked under AGC Frank Pogar (USS Bennington) in the late 50’s and brought Jim (an undesignated striker) from the deck force and got him started in weather.
I hope that you don’t mind my bringing this to your attention.
