Hull Plate #5 Sponsorship
The DDG-5 Crew Members Association Executive Council has authorized the support of the Adams Class Veterans Association (ACVA) Museum Ship restoration efforts by sponsoring Hull Plate #5 in honor of the USS Claude V. Ricketts and the USS Biddle in the ACVA Hull Restoration Fundraiser. The cost of the sponsorship of each hull plate is $2500. The Executive Council is asking that you, our shipmates, contribute towards the purchase of our Hull Plate.
If you wish to make a donation towards this goal, click the above link, print the form, fill it out and send it along with your check to the address on the form. Your contribution will be recorded and then
forwarded to the ACVA. If you wish to charge your donation to your credit card, a link is provided to the ACVA page for that. Please make sure you also send in your Hull Plate #5 donation form if you do use a credit card.
A plaque, made from actual DDG-2 hull plates replaced when the ship goes into dry dock, will recognize our association for our contributions and, at a later time, all contributors will be recognized in a yet to be determined manner. We will maintain a donors listing here on The Big Nickel. The donors list and the goal "thermometer" will be updated weekly with our progress. Once we have enough for hull plate #5, we will continue to accept donations to sponsor a second hull plate and any number that we can sponsor after that.
You are also welcome to contribute on your own in accordance with the information below. If you have any questions, you can contact Michael Margeotes (our Historian), Craig Bernat (ACVA Treasurer & Director Fundraising and President, USS Lawrence Association (DDG-4)) or myself.
