Lenno Johnston recently re-
turned from the 53rd National
Convention and Reunion of the
Navy Seabee Veterans of America
and the concurrent annual reun-
ion of the 126th Naval Construc-
tion Battalion in Albany, New
York.
The battalion received its
charter as the 126th Seabee Bat-
talion at Large, said Johnston, its
first commander and reunion co-
ordinator. He has also served as
national chaplain tbr the organi-
zation and edits its newsletter.
The term Seabee, Johnston
noted, was developed from the
initials for Construction Batta-
lion. "Some military personnel,"
he quipped, "had a different inter-
pretation."
The Navy Seabee Veterans of
America (NSVA) organization, he
says, has 5,000 members and two
local subgroups, known as is-
lands, in Washington. Island X-1 York, in 2000 and in Saint Cloud,
is located in Seattle and Island X-
2 is based in Tacoma. The nation-
al organization, he said, has
issued scholarships to 87 stu-
dents. It plans convention and re-
union activities in Buffalo, New
Minnesota, in 2001.
Anyone who would like more
information on the Seabees can
