We have obtained materials and information
from various sources. But in particular we extend a special thanks to Mrs.
Shirley Goodwyne for the wealth of historical material she so generously
provided. Also we thank the NAVAL
SPECIAL WARFARE ARCHIVES for providing Team rosters and other info.
Most of the photos shown here are from a storage box of Bill's that we
only looked at closely after he was gone. Additional leads and information
were pulled from the internet using conventional internet search methods.
Credit and thanks to the authors of all sources are given on the respective
