Welcome to
the
USS Joseph Strauss
Online Ship's Store
"Attention
Shipmates"
At long last, the "On-line Ship's Store" authorized at the
Albuquerque reunion is ready for action. Our Webmaster, Ray
Berilla, will soon be posting a link to the store on the
Association's web site. Ray has done an enormous amount of
research and programming to make the store a reality. Ray
has also worked out the details required for the
store by setting up and running the enormously successful
deck log project. He deserves a big Bravo Zulu for jobs
well done---Thanks Ray!
Our Ship's Store operator, Larry Knisell, has been busy
photographing and pricing items for sale as well as figuring
out shipping methods and costs. While Ray's work is
complete, Larry's work has just begun. Our store is on a
trial basis to determine the amount of work that will be
involved. We plan to start slowly by offering only a few
items and then work our line of merchandise up dependant on
your demand---and the availability of Larry's and Grace's
time. If the store proves to be successful and does not
overtax their time, we will expand the selections. Our
expansion plans may include the addition of special hand
crafted items from our ladies association or shipmates.
Please visit the store and provide your comments/suggestions
for improvement to any association officer.
