In a year of journeying on this road to publishing and launching my first book, I have been blessed with many gifts.

A new year, change and improvement go together. With the re-launch of Dispatches, we are initiating several changes to guarantee an ongoing publication and to continually improve the overall quality of the articles and photographs.
Dispatches will become a quarterly magazine.
Because our goals for education and the preservation of history are foremost in our thoughts and in MWSA’s mission statement, we have initiated changes to widen our readership.

I had the twenty hundred to midnight watch on deck,
It was Christmas Eve and it was cold as heck.
As I stood there gazing out over the ocean,
My heart was filled with deep emotion.
