Gullickson lost his life when he drowned after<br />the ship's lifeboat was swamped when returning from the Port Huron Lifeboat Station. I was able to save Vincent J. Disch, one of the ships' cooks, after he had survived more than 2 hours in the <br />very cold Lake Huron waters. <br />Neil C. Hamilton<br />Sun City, AZ 85351<br />29 Jan 2012Neil C.
