Hello everyone!
Just wondering if anyone knows what happened to Jessica and Larry Byrnes? I was friends with Jessica's daughter Melissa Piccone (I think she married someone Brown??). I would love to hear from anyone who knows what they're doing now. I hope they are out!
Hi,
I was friends with Jessica, but some years ago, when she lived in East Grinstead, I really liked her. My daughter was friends with Melissa. She stayed with them in USA, but that was years ago.
Last I heard was that they all joined the SO. I do hope they are out, if you find out, please let me know. Sorry, cant help anymore.
Best wishes, Suz
She did marry someone named Brown, but I forget who exactly. She's on my HGB 1994 staff list as Melissa Brown. I remember her.

Hi Paul, do you know if she's still there?
Sorry, I have no later data at all about her. I've got a picture of her somewhere in a swimsuit taken one SO Day though.
Paul
Really?
She was my best friend once, I hope she's okay. last heard from her about 20 years ago.

Really.
And are you really Suz's long-lost daughter?

I have Larry Byrnes (no mention of his wife or daughter) at Int. That information is about a year old and originated from BlownForGood- considered to be a reputable source. I'll keep looking for Jessica and Melissa.
Melissa was at ABLE or WISE.
I remember Melissa Piccone and Larry Byrnes. Melissa was at ABLE or WISE. Larry was highly qualified and desirable person for executive posting as he had actual seaman experience. I believe he was even a sea captain of sorts, which would have made him the highest right-arm-ranking (actual seamanship-skills ranks) officer in the SO. Besides, he was wealthy.
Larry was briefly at ABLE Int and then at Int, as WDC ABLE. This was 1991-1993 -- he got enough of it pretty fast. Last I heard of him was that he and his whole family had left the SO; this was within a year of him arriving to Int, around 1993. I got the idea he had found the place unprofessional, but he was black PR'd as having been nattery and wanting to do things his own way.
Be that as it may, he hasn't been to Int in almost 15 years, and since I never heard of him again, I would assume he never went back to the SO. (I would check that BFG list again to see if it wasn't an EX-Int Base list. Larry certainly hasn't been there for a long time.)
She was CMO IXU. Did she move? But didn't she marry the guy who was CO WISE WUS? Dan (?) Brown?

I saw Larry and Jessica last in 2005 at Flag. They worked with us extensively as VMs after the hurricanes in Florida in 2004. I have no data on current whereabouts.
