Bruce D. Bateman of Danvers has examined many shipwrecks. He remembers these ships as old friends who are gone, but certainly not forgotten. He will present a slide show as well as display many artifacts he has collected over the years. Mr. Bateman explored his first shipwreck, The City of Rockland, on Misery Island, Maine, when he was nine. He has been a Banner Tow Pilot, a Glider Tow Pilot, an Ultra light Aircraft Examiner and a test pilot of experimental aircraft. He was co-founder and president of the Plattsburgh Air Force Diving Club and co-founder of the Air Force Diving Team, where he set up procedures for jumping out of helicopters and rescuing downed airmen.
