Howard Dickman
My name is Howard Dickman
I am a amateur history buff. Last year I did the biographical part of the induction document which resulted in General Roy V. Hoffman, father of the Oklahoma National Guard, being inducted into the Oklahoma Military Hall of Fame.
I am now working on the history of the Sea Org ship, the "Excalibur". I have researched its military history and I am now going to work on its history with the Sea Org. I am doing this for several reasons. 1. The ship was built less than 100 miles from where I grew up. 2. The ship, as recently as September 1968, was conducting underwater acoustical experiments for the Navy out of San Diego. Less than 4 years later I was stationed at the San Diego Naval Antisubmarine Warfare base where I studied the results of those experiments. 3. I served on the Excalibur, the DPF in 1973 and then on the RPF from February 1974 to February 1975. 4. Its all about the people. What remains with me today, 34 after leaving Scientology, is the people I had the pleasure of meeting and interacting with during my time in Scientology. I hope to honor those that served on the Excalibur with a website sometime in the future.
If you care to share your stories, good or bad, I will be including these in this project. Please help me promote this project.
