| Notes: |
| I have a copy of the
video that he narrated. It's a Navy film called "Summer Incident"
about the US Invasion of Lebanon in 1958, a Louie de Rochemont film.
He also makes reference to his experiences on the Navy Carrier CV9
Essex and Cruiser Springdale in a number of his WOR shows like
2-4-65, 1-12-76 and others. He just narrated the film, no on screen
or credits. It is one of those official Navy films so his script is
very rigid and word for word,, no adlibs.

In a Shep
program from 03-04-74, Shep describes a trip he took on CVA 9 off the
coast of Lebanon.
Here is that ship and the planes parked on the bow of the one shot is
the A4D which he refers to in that program.
