The meeting place for the 2022 RAYunion was the Holiday Inn Mobile-Downtown/Historic District on Government Street.
On Friday, the crew toured the USS Alabama Battleship Park, including the USS Drum and the Aircraft Pavillion. Any Radioman could tell you the signal flags on the USS Alabama superstructure read "NEMW" which are the call letters of the battleship. The USS Ray (SSN-653) call letters were "NDLH".

Back during the 2010 RAYunion in Charleston, SC, Bob Reeter (1976-1978) and Greg (Chew) Howson (1976-1979) had a "stunning" bidding war over
a bottle of Jack Daniels Master Distiller #7 Tennessee whiskey. Bob Reeter won that auction with a bid of several hundred dollars.
Twelve years later at this 2022 RAYunion, Bob brought the bottle back, broke the seal, and shared it with the crew!
