Videos


Try the very first rough seas video in the low resolution section (the smallest video) as a test to see if it works for you and give it a while to start playing.  If it works then you can judge for yourself whether to try the slower loading hi res versions or not.

*note:   Added sound to all the videos.

These videos would not be here if not for my shipmate, Ben Siebels.   Ben was an EM1 aboard Lipan in the late 1960's (later retired as a Senior Chief) and he shot numerous reels of super 8mm film, which he laboriously spliced together and placed on VHS tape.  He kindly sent me a copy of the tape and I, in turn, hooked my VCR up to my laptop and processed the entire VHS tape into mpeg files on my hard drive.
