Streaming Video Content
The videos provided on these pages are developed for Macromedia® Flash Player.  The videos are displayed in a high-quality 640X480 native view.  The Flash Player has a button (second from bottom right) that allows a full-screen view with little loss to video quality.

These shows are best viewed using a high-speed Internet connection (DSL, Cable or Broadband).  56K dial-up connections will work, but are so slow as to be quite annoying.  If you do not have a high-speed connection at this time, you might visit your local Public Library.  Most offer newer computer systems with a high-speed Internet connection.

Computer age, speed, memory and video memory also affects the video performance.  At a minimum for decent performance, you will need a P3-500mhz processor, 512mb of system memory, 128mb video memory running on a Windows 2000, XP or Vista Operating System.

Video Sources
The still and moving images in the video clips come from my personal library and from contributions of several of our shipmates.  Most notably, Al Dentino has donated video tape of the reunions from 1995 through 2001 plus his photo archive of all reunions.  Significant time is required to digitize the video and still photo content, organize it and then produce it in a streaming format for the web.  This will be a work in progress for some time to come.  Individual shows will be rolled out to the website as they are produced.
