This photo was sent to the LOG by Dean R. Wooster of Palm Coast, Fla. It was taken aboard the SS Vantage Progress in February 1967 while on the Vietnam run. Pictured “left to right are Oiler Mack, Engineer Dave and F.W.T. Dean R. Wooster.”
Wooster notes that one can tell the vessel is a West Coast C-2 because it has Foster Wheeler boilers whereas an East Coast C-2 has Babcox and Willcox boilers.
Wooster, now 65, has just filed for his SIU pension.
