Capt RW Lowman, USN Capt Lowman had a distinguished career in the Navy. His career spanned WWII, the Korean War (Bronze Star), the Cuban Crisis, and the Vietnam War. He was part of the official red carpet welcoming committee to Gemini 10 astronauts after splashdown. He did all of this but was a modest man, one that crew members say was the original "officer and a gentleman." This site is a visual feast but chock full of wonderful stories contributed by sailors to honor their skipper, and full of official photos, press releases, and a unique "family tree." It is brand new (in time for Christmas) and is one part of a larger family history project. Do pay us a visit. We are so pleased with wonderful contributions by many people who contributed stories and photos to honor a life well-lived.
