Remembering Graham Hollbrook - He was a genuine unforgettable character, always had time for a laugh. Worked into his 70’s for DND including companies such as GasTops and MIL Davie all in support of Naval Ships and Submarines. From the grass roots of IMCS for the 280’s, to overseeing the transitions to IPMS, he probably witnessed more MM Propulsion Trials on ships than anyone on the west coast. His unique style of conveying his thoughts and ideas, which often consisted of hours talking on the phone until the party on the other end (usually an LCMM –KS comes to mind) fully understood how things actually or should work, were unforgettable as well as entertaining. And he backed up his ideas with conviction and technical data. A great one of a kind.
