THE FINEST PEOPLE TO BE FOUND ANYWHERE

Ray and Anne Schultz were the founders of the USS Hull Association as they attended a
USS Dobbin reunion in 1982 which then announced a reunion in 1983 for the Dobbin and
destroyers alongside during the Pearl Harbor attack , to be held in Tampa Florida. Spiz
Hoffman and Marge attended and Spiz noted that Ray had attended in 1983 and he called
him and they attended the Dobbin reunion in 1984 in Portland  along with Geral and
Beverly Newsom, Snake Godfrey, Nick Salerno and Ed Dowd. They decided to hold
their own reunion in 1985 at the Circus Circus in Las Vegas followed by reunions:

Gayline Drummond,sponsors: Four Queens, Las Vegas, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005,
and 2006 for a total of 22 reunions. It has been a glorious time for getting together and
sharing our association here on earth and many of the shipmates have earned their last
reward. They have left a large number of descendents and relatives and I have an
ambition to bring them together under an organization: "Typhoon Cobra Reunions"which
will include all of the ships involved with us in the typhoon. An effort is underway to
collect funds for a memorial to those ships at " Pacific War Memorial" , Admiral Nimitz
Foundation, Fredericksburgh Texas and anyone who donates to sponsor deceased and
surviving sailors on the memorial will also be welcomed to "reunions" .It is considered
that $10.00 will sponsor one sailor, $30.00 would sponsor three, etc. etc. The procedure
for donations to sponsor and dues for "Reunions" using , Pay Pal, or personal check is
displayed on the web page "services" . Please join us .The "thumbnail" pictures below
