OK, I work with a Museum and I would like to have sound effects from a

carrier,
I have the record that is sold on Ebay. But I need more. I would also like

to
get some of the voice trafic form and AC. I have tried to get current

soldiers
to contact me so I could get someone to run some tapes, but no luck. So if

some
folks could right down some or the voice traffic they have heard from MC1,

MC5,
and AC crews. I thank all those who can help, I know there will be alot of
comments that I can't use, but if we could keep those to only a few I am
greatful.

I know from what I read and see on tapes some of the common ones ie:

All Hands standby for a messsage from the skipper
Attention on deck, stand-by to recover AC
Bandit 3 O-clock high
Call the Ball
In the Groove

A seperate e-mail would be fine to
Again thanks to all that can add and help!
