My father was a double and consultant for Loyd Bridges in Sea Hunt. Roland Bruning was a navy demolition diver. He was a sponge diver in Tarpon Springs. He hit paydirt or sand when He became a diver an consutant for the series. He used to take my white bear on him as a safety as he called it. Il post some pics tommorow, Tks Eric

Loved "Sea Hunt" and Loyd Bridges. This show inspired me to get certified! Such a funny and talented gentleman right up until his death a couple of years ago.

My oldest sister passed on a couple weeks ago, and my niece brought me some pics that my sister had...Most of our parents, but a couple of me...
The one below was taken at Rushford Lake NY, at that time a Summer residence/getaway...Overgrown with full-time residents now...My parents had a cottage there up until 1971...My dad built it himself... It was a man-made lake, with a dam at the Southern end...In the Fall, they would drain the lake (into the Genesee River) for the Winter...This pic is labeled Nov 58...Must have been a warm November...My first dog, 'Lady', is to my right...I'm holding an old Mattel cap gun that I'd gotten somewhere; the [fake plastic] Cutts compensator was broken off, and just a jagged end stuck out...I filed it to a 'spade' tip...The folding stock may not have come with it; I remember taping it extended with electricians tape...(I started hacking guns when I was little)... I don't remember the sweatshirt...or the hat...
