Welcome to the Reunion Committee Website

UPDATED 1/24/10  The results are in for the next reunion location. The number in parenthesis represents the number of votes received. The winner is Charleston, SC (29) The other locations receiving votes were New London (21), Chicago (11), New Orleans (10), Mobile (9), San Diego (8), Norfolk (6), Branson (5), Cincinnati (4) and anywhere (2).

When you go to access the crew locator the user name must be in lower case. I don't know how this happened because it wasn't case-sensitive when I set it up.

I've been made Chief of the Boat for Charleston Base of USSVI and as a result have not been able to spend much time on updating the site. It's going to be slow going for a while so please bear with me. 

The 2009 Reunion was a great success. We have decided that the Reunion Committee will generate a list of suggested locations for the 2011 reunion and let everyone vote for the location. More on this later.

I'm adding a Bulletin Board immediately following the Deaths and Binnacle List. Messages will remain posted for 3 months. E-mail messages you want posted to SSBN632REUNION@sc.rr.com .

Deaths and Binnacle List

I received the following from Bob Lewis. Lou Ladow passed away on Monday Jan 18. He had been in the hospital several times for (I think its called) COPD. He had breathing problems for some time. He called me that morning before going home from the hospital. But something happened and he died while still there. They are trying to determine exactly what the cause was but at this time don't have an answer. Bob

Here's an address for Louie's son if any one would like to send a card. Peter LaDow 11410 N.E. 124th St #652 Kirkland ,Wa 98034 Lou's service will be Feb 6th in Belfair Wa.

Bulletin Board

This site is dedicated to the men who served aboard USS Von Steuben SSBN 632 and the women and families that kept them going. It doesn't matter if you were Blue or Gold, or the wife, parent, girlfriend, or child of a crewmember, this is your site.

The Ship's Store IS OPEN.  All money made goes back into the next reunion. The site USS Von Steuben Store is NOT a Reunion Committee activity!
