Ferdinando Liguoro (Italy)
Born in Torre del Greco (Naples) in 1937. After attending technical radio operator high school, in 1960 during compulsory Military Service in the Navy I was assigned to the Navy Coast Station of LivornoRadio/IDK and then military ships as well. I become interested in radio so in 1961 I earned 1st Class Radio Operator Certificate. I worked as Radio Officer on merchant ships for several years: – M/T Brattland/LANE, MV MATTHEW, SS FLORITA, SS MATEO, MV MATROZOS. Then I came to work ashore as Radio Operator in RomaRadio/IAR. I than was employed as tele-type technician in a work place nearer my home than Roma. I ended up my career as Postmaster. Since retairement I have a lot of interests such as: painting, sculpture, music, recitation and last but not least a wine grower. Time to time with my brothers I like shareing with them memories about years spent at sea and I have to admit that often I feel the missing of open sea and voyages over the oceans.
