 |  | | Memorabilia One of
the fun things about my experience in the Navy was the collection of jackets, patches, decals, bumper stickers, belt buckels and other memorabilia that I managed to pile up. This stuff really helps keep the memories alive. The intention of this area is to build a comprehensive list of USS LOS ANGELES (SSN-688) memorabilia. Are you aware of something that is not on the list? If so, visit Collector's Corner Forum on LA-ex.org: Shoot The Breeze and tell us about it. Better
yet, send us a scan or snap shot (see Contributions). LA-ex.org: Shoot The Breeze message board also offers the Collector's Corner forum for those who are interested in trading SSN-688 or any submarine, ship, or other Navy memorabilia. |
