Thank you, I feel the need to get history out there, I think if people know more about where they are from they can have more respect for the area and themselves. Thank you for being part of the channel, and part of Western Washington History.

@@westernwashingtonhistory1889 I lived my first 10 yrs in Gig Harbor (Key Peninsula) my next 10 yrs in Tacoma (University Place) & the last 25 yrs here in Bremerton. I miss & visit often the "big city" of Tacoma & it has grown so much, but I have always described Bremerton as a little "slice" of Tacoma. I also LOVE the geographical location here in Bremerton. What wld Bremerton be without the shipyard?!?
