I was never in the "BEES" but was fortunate to have been in and around them a number of times. Found everyone I met to outgoing, hard working, and lovers of a good time. I thank you for your service you Cold War Warrior. It is appreciated. You are relieved. Rest in peace. Fair winds and following seas.
