Special Friend: Tensie Graham

by Harry Cooper


Some years ago, MILES GRAHAM (521-+-1988) sent us a story about the time he served aboard U-2513 as prize crew. We ran that story in our KTB Magazine and then MILES passed away. We recently sent the story to the NAVAL SUBMARINE LEAGUE (233-1987) and they ran the story in their publication, and they sent a check for $100 to MILES in care of SHARKHUNTERS. We sent it onward to his widow with a note of explanation.

Imagine our surprise when the check came back here, endorsed to SHARKHUNTERS with a note from Tensie Graham. It said:

    “I was so grateful to receive the $100 check for a story Miles gave you many years ago.

    This was a timely arrival as Miles was buried 6 years and 1 month ago today. (Date of the letter was 30 March 2002)

    I choose to return the check to deposit in your treasury for whatever. Miles would have wanted it this way.
