Perch Base
USS Bugara
Perch Base Submarine Veterans (USSVI) Webmaster and Life Member Dan Marks presented a painting to Chuck Bishop of the USS Bugara (SS-331),
his qual boat, on February 7, 2020.
I guess you could call it a "Change of Command" ceremony.
Dan won the painting as the high (and only) bidder at the live auction during the Western Regional Roundup in Laughlin, NV, in
March, 2019. Upon the discovery that Chuck, a Life Member at the White Mountain Base, qualified on the USS Bugara in 1961, Dan
offered the painting to Chuck, who was honored to "give it a good home."
In appreciation of the gift, Chuck made a donation to Perch Base, becoming a Life Member of our base as his Secondary Base.
