A new book, Just Do It, Crazy or Not, published by Manzano Alley Press recounts the life story of Chief Irvin Hornkohl. As a Seabee he served two tours in Vietnam with NMCB 62 and 6201. He was also a resident Seabee at American embassies in Prague and Cambodia. Readers relive his life of adventures, beginning with growing up during the Depression, surviving the attack at Pearl Harbor, serving on 11 wartime submarine patrols during WWII, and finishing his 30 year Navy career as a Seabee. Visit the Manzano Alley Press website to learn more about the unforgettable Irvin Hornkohl.Submitted by: Ron Mecoli

NMCB 62 was my first Battalion, 88-89. Went to Det Naples. Great friends/family. Any other Det Naples Bees out there. After 62 decom went to NMCB 74. Love this site. Good to see all of the fellow Seabees from all years keeping this going. Great job Norm.
