With great sadness I report on Sunday, March 13, 2022, our
shipmate, friend, and Brother of the 'Phin, Frank Capaci, 69
departed on Eternal Patrol at Trident Hospital. Frank joined the
Navy in 1973 and retired in 1993. He was a Life Member of USSVI
[2016] & Charleston Base [2016]. Frank qualified on USS
KAMEHAMEHA SSBN/SSN-642 in 1975 and also served on
HUNLEY AS-31, PROTEUS AS-19, SIMON LAKE AS-33 and
ALABAMA SSBN-731. His shore duties included Naval Guided
Missile School Dam Neck VA, Trident Training Facility Pearl Harbor
HI and Strategic Systems Programs Arlington VA.
Frank's wife, Mona, called me today to inform me of Frank's
passing. A memorial service will be held at a future date and
Charleston Base will be notified when the date is decided.
She also emailed me some condolences she received from those
he worked with in his after-Navy occupation and a Letter of
Commendation he received from that job.
