James Lee Traweek

I was Jim's Chief Petty Officer on the USS Constellation and USS Ranger. I lost track of him until another shipmate put us back in touch several years ago. Jim was a hardworking sailor, liked by all his shipmates and I'm sure he was just as well-liked in his later endeavors. Although I did not get the chance to meet him in later years, I will always remember him as a great friend to all and he will be sorely missed.

Fair Winds & Following Seas, Jim

God speed my friend. Though I didn't know you personally, we shared the same sea. I was RVAH 6. I'm sure you will be watching over your family as we did each other many years ago. God bless and keep your family.

I did not know James personally but I wish to acknowledge his service time to this country and say thank you. I am sure he was a role model to many people.

SO VERY SORRY MY HUBBY WAS LARRY DOTY AND WAS IN HEAVY 12 AND IS A PLANK OWNER SERVED ON AIR CRAFT CARRIER OFF VIET NAM HE WAS IN RVH12 POINT THE WAY LOST MY CHARM WISH I KNEW WHERE TO REPLACE IT . I ALSO LOST MY HUBBY AND I AM SO VERY SORRY MY HEART GOES OUT TO YOU AS A FAMILEY ! GOD EASE THE PAIN ! TAKE CARE OF YOU ALL MUCH THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS !

I shall pray for Jim and all the loved ones he left behind.
Jim, I'll see you on the Flight Deck one of these days. Save me a shady spot.

It's really tough to loose a family member, but I also believe it's hard on our crewmates to loose a valued and trusted friend. If I'm not mistaken, his foot prints are on a lot of WestPac and Med Ceilings!!!! Fair Winds and God Bless!

Fair winds and following seas to James and those he left behind. Bill Bramer, CDR, SC, UNSR (RET).

My deepest sympathy to Jim's loved ones. Will meet you on the other side!
