Norman H. Olson

I was a newly minted Ensign, USNR, when I showed up at COMNAVSPECWARGRULANT for duty, much to the chagrin of my CO, Capt Symons, and my XO CDR Norman Olson, since I was filling a billet normally reserved for UDT/SEAL. Needless to say, I got off to a bad start before I arrived, and I soon learned why my XO was referred to as "Storming Norman." Incredibly intimidated (ok, downright terrified), I did my best to stay away from him. I´m usually a decent volleyball player, but whenever I´d be on...

My thoughts, prayers and blessings go out for Craig, Cody and the rest of the family during this very sad time.

Bobbie and all...Stunned and saddened by this news. Looking forward to a fitting tribute
and sendoff at Little Creek. I'll be in touch and send love with virtual hugs...

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.
